About This Quote

The song sung by Whitney Houston was written by Leon Russell. She sang it several times in her career, and each time the message was the same: “I am ready, I am ready, I am fine. I am fine, I am fine, I am fine.” Each time, she got worse. Each time, she did not die right away; she kept singing that song for another day.
