Death Quote by Walter Mosley — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“He wasn’t ready for death, but if it came today, he would face it with his head held high and Alexander Lightwood’s name on his lips.”

“If you gave [Jerry] Falwell an enema he could be buried in a matchbox.”

“Everyone owes nature a death.”

“You think it's so great to die and make everyone cry and carry on. Well it ain't.”

“But you said so yourself,the poor lass will die of it...Do you really want her to die?”

“You still waste time with those things, Lenu? We are flying over a ball of fire. The part that has cooled floats on the lava. On that part we construct the buildings, the bridges, and the streets, and every so often the lava comes out of Vesuvius or causes an earthquake that destroys everything. There are microbes everywhere that make us sick and die. There are wars. There is a poverty that makes us all cruel. Every second something might happen that will cause you such suffering that you'll never have enough tears. And what are you doing? A theology course in which you struggle to understand what the Holy Spirit is? Forget it, it was the Devil who invented the world, not the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Do you want to see the string of pearls that Stefano gave me?”
