-- Kris Maglione I believe that when I die I shall rot, and nothing of my ego will survive. I am not young, and I love life. But I should scorn to shiver with terror at the thought of annihilation. Happiness is none the less true happiness because it must come to an end, nor do thought and love lose their value because they are not everlasting. --Bertrand RussellReceived on Thu Nov 05 2009 - 09:18:42 UTC
