Orson Scott Card Quote

Live your life in such a way that you'll be remembered for your kindness, compassion, fairness, character, benevolence, and a force for good who had much respect for life, in general.

Her body accepted my brutal seed and took it to swell within, just as the patient earth accepts a falling fruit into its tender soil to cradle and nourish it to grow. Came a time, just springtime last...

...and when we die we die alone I cry, I cry aloneLike a piece of stone I am thrown into the wavy ocean of lifeto atone...to atoneOnly to atone...

I could simply kill you now, get it over with, who would know the difference? I could easily kick you in, stove you under, for all those times, mean on gin, you rammed words into my belly. (p. 52)

Death walks among us

Death twitches my ear;'Live,' he says... 'I'm coming.

If I die today, will you remember me tomorrow?The love I'm leaving behind, will you care to borrow? From a snake-shed-skin or from the sky unknownIn all living and the dead I'll dwell to groan

We need not fear death, for it is simply the next phase of life. We never die, we simply change form - just as we have since the day we were born.

The Bravest Thing I Ever Did Was Continuing My Life When I Wanted To Die.

We must make time to reflect on life.Someday this life will be gone.
