Death Quotes
-
After us they’ll fly in hot air balloons, coat styles will change, perhaps they’ll discover a sixth sense and cultivate it, but life will remain the same, a hard life full of secrets, but happy. And a thousand years from now man will still be sighing, 'Oh! Life is so hard!' and will still, like now, be afraid of death and not want to die.
Anton Chekhov
