Death is a bored clerk, with too many orders to fill. There is no reckoning. No profound moment. It creeps up on us from behind, and snatches us away while we shit. Nov 24, 2024 - Fabian Biese>

But hey, his fucking gutters were clean. Nov 24, 2024 - Fabian Biese>

But in battle you cannot tell another when it is his time to enter the World-to-Come, nor is it possible to keep any man in this world when he wishes to leave it behind. Nov 24, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
But unless we determine to take action,' said the old man querulously, as if struggling against something deeply insouciant in his nature, 'then we shall all be destroyed, we shall all die. Surely we care about that?' 'Not enough to want to get killed over it,' said Ford. Nov 24, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
