Cinda Williams ChimaI had the experience of having my grandmother in a nursing home at the end of her life, and had dementia set in with my father.

Tamara JenkinsYet at the last Beren was slain by the Wolf that came from the gates of Angband, and he died in the arms of Tinรบviel.

I have always figured that you die each day and and each day is a is a box, you see, all numbered and neat; but never go back and lift the lids, because you have died a couple thousand times in your life, and that's a lot of corpses, each dead a different way, each with a worse expression.

It wasn't that Jesus healed a leper but that he touched a leper, because no one touched lepers.

That is a political statistic.
