“And death i think is no parenthesis”
—E.E. (Edward Estlin)
““... War on the destiny of man!
Doom on the sun!”
Before death takes you, O take back this.”

“I’m beginning to believe that Killer Illiteracy ought to rank near heart disease and cancer as one of the leading causes of death among Americans.
