Just as, when a cow to be slaughtered is led to the shambles, whenever she lifts a leg she will be closer to slaughter, closer to death; even so, brahmins, is human life like cattle doomed to slaughter; it is short, limited, and brief. It is full of suffering, full of tribulation. This one should wisely understand. One should do good and live a pure life; for none who is born can escape death.
Bhikkhu Bodhi

But there are two kinds of escape. There is the escape from something, motivated by fear; and the escape to something, motivated by longing.

A fellow is more afraid of the trouble he might have than he ever is of the trouble he's already got. He'll cling to trouble he's used to before he'll risk a change. Yes.

It's the dead ones that lay quiet in one place and dont try to hold him, that he cant escape from.
William Faulkner
