Death Quote by Jason Daniel Chaplin — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Our only true identity is that of a steward. Everything else is a costume. The more ornate the mask, the more fragmented the soul beneath it. To save the world, don’t protect your ego—plant something. Heal something. Love something. Serve something. Or be still. The garden is waiting.”

“Aurelia was just about to take a sip of a mimosa when Mother Guardian snatched the flute away and promptly downed the drink in one gulp. Burping unashamedly, she said, "We can't have the validity of the marriage contracts jeopardized because the bride got rat-assed on her wedding day.”

“We go by the will of the black rabbit. When he calls you, you have to go”

“He thought of night coming on. He thought of the loneliness of tonight, this first night in the ground. This, he thought, was the moment when the dead must first feel truly alone. This was the moment when the dead, in loneliness, feel the first stirrings of the long penance of decay. This was the moment when the dead realize the truth: This is it, it will never be different.”

“In the end we all come to be cured of our sentiments. Those whom life does not cure death will. The world is quite ruthless in selecting between the dream and reality, even where we will not. Between the wish and the thing the world lies waiting. I've thought a great deal about my life and my country. I think there is little that can be truly known. My family has been fortunate. Others were less so. As they are often quick to point out.”

“The living stayed home, haunting the world of the dead like ghosts.”
