In the same category I place not only bankruptcies, but the law which carries off the bankrupt? effects, so as to defraud their creditors. Voltaire

As long as you keep being born its ok to die every now and then. Orson Scott Card
The difficulty in the way of writing a children's play is that Barrie was born too soon. Many people must have felt the same about Shakespeare. We who came later have no chance. What fun to have been Adam, and to have had the whole world of plots and jokes and stories at one's disposal. A. A. Milne
Others work among the spirits that have just arrived in the world of spirits. Again others raise the children who have died in infancy. Swedenborg ensures the parents of these infants that 'All children whether born within or outside of the church, are adopted by the Lord and become Angels'. Emanuel Swedenborg
