so when thy summons comes to join the innumerable caravan which moves to that mysterious realm where each shall take his chamber in the silent halls of death, thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night, scourged by his dungeon; but, sustain’d and soothed by an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave, like one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.

"I turned to face the ultimate demon, the demon of demons, the holder of life and death and dared to look upon its face. It was my face. I am he. I am the face of immortality and death."
