My mother in law is in the hospital and so my husband and she were reviewing her living will. My sister in law asked me whether I had one.

"If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially."
