We are ever dying to one world and being born into another.
Of all the men who were said to be my contemporaries, it seemed to me that John Brown was the only one who had not died.
I have heard a good many pretend that they are going to die; or that they have died, for aught that I know. Nonsense! I'll defy them to do it. They have n't got life enough in them.... Only half a dozen or so have died since the world began.
