People can undergo a sudden change of thinking and loyalties under threat of death or intense social pressure and isolation from friends and family.

It's not the normal way to look at things but I experienced death at a really young age and because of that it's been part of my mental landscape that death is really very possible.

I made a supreme effort not to do that thing that parents do, which is to bore people without children to death by going on and on about how funny their children are, so there's none of that hopefully.

Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death.

Death, the final, triumphant lover.
