Only the coward who has more fear of death than dignity can comfort himself with the fact that
his body will in time live again in the grass, in the stones, in the toad. To find one's
immortality in the transmutation of substances is as strange as to prophesy a brilliant future
for the case after a precious violin has been broken and becomes useless. — "Ward 6"
