Jacob studied the iron graveyard, where every vehicle was its own gravestone. He drove slowly through, as if he was afraid to wake the dead. That was not it though. The general made it clear that they should fear the living.

About This Quote

When one sees a graveyard in which every vehicle in the parking lot is its own gravestone it means that the vehicles in the people’s lives are not getting the attention they deserve. The fact that you are alive when you are passing by millions of graves only emphasizes the fact that you are alive. When you die you become part of something bigger, but when you are alive one day is not much different from another.
