Slaughterhouse Five

Quote Posted on August 18, 2013 Updated on January 26, 2014

When a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is “When a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist. It is just an illusion we have here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever.
