Theodor Baierl; Knight and Death

Posted on August 18, 2011 by ubu507

 But whether we struggle violently against death or merely sink into it as though it were a never-ending swoon, the reason is the same. It is because death is incomprehensible to us. The manner in which we meet it cannot alter in any way its incomprehensibility.

— Alexander Lernet-Holenia
