As our material existence is not life, so our material destruction is not death. Death should be regarded only as a relay in our journey; we reach it with exhausted horses, and we pause to get fresh ones able to carry us farther. But we must also pay what is due for the stage, already travelled, and until the account is settled, we are not allowed to go forward. Fear walks with those who dwell upon death, but those who think of life have love for their companion. Death is the target at which all men strike; but the angle of incidence being equal to the angle of reflection, they find themselves after death in their former degree, whether above or below. - Louis-Claude de Saint-Martin
