People once believed that when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest. Then sometimes, just sometimes, the crow can bring that soul back to put the wrong things right. James OBarr
About This Quote

When we fall we may not be able to get up. We know we should, but we can't. Many people have said that when death comes, it is the person's time to go and they shouldn't be given any chance to be righted and brought back. But in some cases, it turns out that this is not the case at all. Some people don't want to go and choose to stay until everything has been put right again.
