Death is not a word to fear, any more than birth is.

Matter moves, but Ether is strained.

But although life is not energy, any more than it is matter, yet it directs energy and thereby controls arrangements of matter.

Life must be considered sui generis; it is not a form of energy, nor can it be expressed in terms of something else.

The conception of Godhead formed by some devout philosophers and mystics has quite rightly been so immeasurably vast, though still assuredly utterly inadequate and necessarily beneath reality, that the notion of a God revealed in human formborn, sufferin.

There is no instrument for measuring the pressure of the Ether, which is probably millions of times greater: it is altogether too uniform for direct apprehension. A deep-sea fish has probably no means of apprehending the existence of water, it is too uniformly immersed in it: and that is our condition in regard to the Ether.

Death is not a foe, but an inevitable adventure.
