Instead, he would make death his final project, the center point of his days. Since everyone was going to die, he could be of great value, right? He could be research. A human textbook. Study me in my slow and patient demise. Watch what happens to me. Learn with me. Mitch Albom
About This Quote

When death is the center point of your life, your life is not about you. You become a subject in the study of science. Science will observe you, learn with you, and keep learning until it can no longer learn. It is troubling to think that you could be studied like this, but that’s what people would do if they were studying you.

This type of mindset is the reason why our world has become less and less accepting of death. If you think about it, all of us are already dead; we’re just not yet dead.
