Death Quote by Mark Slouka — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“You've got to think of the fine times you had with your mate, not the moment of his perishin'. Every tear you shed now only wets his windin' sheet and disturbs his rest”

“Try to remember some details. For the world”

“We love because we can lose. If there was no threat of separation, no death to shake us to our core, we probably wouldn't love much at all.”

“We're reaching for death”

“A Second Childhood.”

“As for myself: I had come to the conclusion that there was nothing sacred about myself or any human being, that we were all machines, doomed to collide and collide and collide. For want of anything better to do, we became fans of collisions. Sometimes I wrote well about collisions, which meant I was a writing machine in good repair. Sometimes I wrote badly, which meant I was a writing machine in bad repair. I no more harbored sacredness than did a Pontiac, a mousetrap, or a South Bend Lathe.”
