"Suppressing the fear of death makes it all the stronger."
"The fear of death is completely absurd. Because if you’re dead, you’ve got nothing to worry about, so you’ll be alright."
- Alan Watts

I turn to the crowd as they're watching
They're sitting all together in the dark in the warm
I wanted to be in there among them
I see how their eyes are gathered into one
And then she turns to me with her hand extended
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
- Suzanne Vega (1987)
