Deathbed Quotes - Page 5

• Our life is composed of events and states of mind. How ewe appraise our life from our deathbed will be predicated not only on what came to us in life but how we lived with it. It will not be simply illness or health, riches or poverty, good luck or bad, which ultimately define whether we believe we have had a good life or not, but the quality of our relationship to these situations: the attitudes of our states of mind. (34)

• En su lecho de muerte pidió un sacerdote y se hizo católico. Era la religión de su mujer. Era asunto suyo y no mío. Si hubieras condenado a muerte a ciento sesenta hombres y hubieras visto cómo se columpiaban unos ochenta, quizá en el último momento sentirías la necesidad de una medicina más fuerte que la que podían fabricar los metodistas.

• Contrary to the fantasies of the fundamentalists, there was no deathbed conversion, no last minute refuge taken in a comforting vision of a heaven or an afterlife. For Carl, what mattered most was what was true, not merely what would make us feel better. Even at this moment when anyone would be forgiven for turning away from the reality of our situation, Carl was unflinching. As we looked deeply into each other's eyes, it was with a shared conviction that our wondrous life together was ending forever.
