A stone I died






.


A stone I died and rose again a plant;

A plant I died and rose an animal;

I died an animal and was born a man.

Why should I fear? What have I lost by death?


—Rumi

. . .


I do not fear death.

I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.


—Mark Twain
