Quotes Part II

Well, I guess there's always room for a few more quotes! ;)

--------------------

"We do not want to know life, which includes death, but we want to know how to continue and not come to an end. We do not want to know life and death, we only want to know how to continue without ending. That which continues has no renewal... It is only when continuity ends that there is a possibility of that which is ever new."

Krishnamurti A Sage From India

-------------------

Rava said to Rav Nachman, "Show yourself to me (in a dream after you die)."

He showed himself to Rava.

Rava asked him, "Was death painful?"

Rav Nachman replied, "It was as painless as lifting a hair from a cup of milk. But were the Holy One to say to me, "You may return to that world where you were before' I would not wish to do it. The fear of death is too great."
