Smart men thinking stupid things about death

I love both of these guys, but I couldn’t disagree with them more on this subject.

"There are so many beautiful things which I will have to leave when I die, but I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready." - Maurice Sendak

“Do not pity the dead. Pity the living.” – Albus Dumbledore

When it comes to death, give me Dylan Thomas any day.

I am famous for the following quote related to death:

“Don’t let anyone fool you.  Death is hardest on the dead.” – Matthew Dicks

In truth, I’m not actually famous for the quote at all, but I’m desperately trying to be.
