No man can live faced with Death, knowing everything's nothingness.

Ingen människa kan leva med Döden för ögonen och vetskapen om alltings intighet.

Another quote from the 1950s

What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore -
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over -
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
