    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “The ancients adorned their sarcophagi with the emblems of life and procreation, and even with obscene symbols; in the religions of antiquity the sacred and the obscene often lay very close together.

    —Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    “I can only see death and more death, till we are black and swollen with death.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
