FROM THE PREFACES TO THE BOOK   1001 THINGS TO DO WHILE YOU’RE DEAD: A DEAD PERSON’S GUIDE TO LIVING —

“I wonder if I could have been here before? As I drive up the Roman road the theater seems familiar. Perhaps I headed a legion up that same white road… I passed a chateau in ruins which I possibly helped escalade in the Middle Ages. There is no proof nor yet any denial.  We were, We are, and We will be.”

— General George S. Patton

“Eternity is not something that begins after you’re dead. It is going on all the time. We are in it now.”

— Charlotte Perkins Gilman

“After your death you will be what you were before your birth.”

— Arthur Schopenhauer

“I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.”

— Benjamin Franklin

“That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange eons even Death may die.”

— H.P. Lovecraft
