Nobody with an IQ higher than emergency-room temperature could ever believe that 'death panels' would be appointed to nudge the elderly toward euthanasia. Yet for idle entertainment it's hard to beat Sarah Palin's ignorant nattering on the subject.

If consciousness can function independently of the body during one's lifetime it could be able to do the same after death.

I couldn't have foreseen all the good things that have followed my mother's death. The renewed energy the surprising sweetness of grief. The tenderness I feel for strangers on walkers. The deeper love I have for my siblings and friends. The desire to play the mandolin. The gift of a visitation.

It is long since I could have adventured on eternity through God's mercy and Christ's merits but death remained somewhat terrible and that now is taken away and now death is no more to me but to cast myself into my husband's arms and to lie down with Him.

I love this pedal to death. The only way you could keep me from playing one is by chopping off my legs!

If Shaw and Einstein couldn't beat death what chance have I got? Practically none.

I was court-martial in my absence and sentenced to death in my absence so I said they could shoot me in my absence.

McVeigh's lawyer got him the death penalty which quite frankly I could have done.

The U.S. couldn't even get rid of Saddam Hussein. And we all know that the EU is just a passing fad. They'll be killing each other again in less than a year. I'm sick to death of all these fascist lawsuits.

There's something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now.

Because I could not stop for death He kindly stopped for me The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.

Frankly the reason I joined MENSA is because I was dating a guy at the time who spoke five languages and could solve a Rubik's Cube literally with his eyes closed because it's just an algorithm.

I started dating older men and I would fall in love with them. I thought they could teach me about life.

I think if I could have a boyfriend like my brothers I'd be really happy. But without the brother thing.
