You have not lost him but have won him. No living man enters the halls of immortality. The body must die before the doors are opened. He whom you mourn is now among the greatest men of all time, unassailable forever.

-- Franz Grillparzer

Oh Grillparzer, what a punk ass.

Have you ever read "Der arme Spielmann," David?
