I have no fear of the dead. Indeed in my own limited experience I have found them to produce in me a feeling that is quite the opposite of fear. A dead body is much more fascinating than a live one and I have learned that most corpses tell better stories. I’d had the good fortune of seeing several of them in my time. Alan Bradley
About This Quote

When a person says "I have no fear of the dead," they are admitting that they have been exposed to death. If you have been exposed to death, understand that it is inevitable. No one is exempt from death. Death will come to you too, but I promise you this: when your time comes, your desire to live will be stronger than your fear of death.
