Oliver Sacks Quote

The last scene of Michael’s life was played out in a hospital emergency room, waiting for the operation which this time, he thought, would probably take his leg. He was lying on a stretcher when he suddenly raised himself up on an elbow, said, I’m going outside to have a smoke, and fell back dead.
