"A belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses it is an idea that possesses the mind. "

"Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads, which sew people together through the years. "

"Even at our birth, death does but stand aside a little. And every day he looks towards us and muses somewhat to himself whether that day or the next he will draw nigh. "

"No one's death comes to pass without making some impression, and those close to the deceased inherit part of the liberated soul and become richer in their humaneness. "
