No one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away—until the clock he wound up winds down, until the wine she made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone’s life, they say, is only the core of their actual existence.
–“Reaper Man”
‘Haven’t you ever heard the saying “Man’s not dead while his name is still spoken”?’
–”Going Postal”
People will always remember the songs he never had the chance to sing. And they will be the greatest songs of all. Live your life in a moment. And then live forever. Don’t fade away.
–“Soul Music”
