"Not one has shown an iota of fear of death. They want to end this agony." ― Jack Kevorkian Topic(s): Death More From Jack Kevorkian "I’m trying to knock the medical profession into accepting its responsibilities, and those responsibilities include assisting their patients with death." "I hate to say this, but I’ll repeat it: After death, all we know that you do is stink." "As a medical doctor, it is my duty to evaluate the situation with as much data as I can gather and as much expertise as I have and as much experience as I have to determine whether or not the wish of the patient is medically justified." More In Death "For those who live neither with religious consolations about death nor with a sense of death (or of anything else) as natural, death is the obscene mystery, the ultimate affront, the thing that cannot be controlled. It can only be denied."― Susan Sontag "Death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate."― Ambrose Bierce "Death is the final wake-up call."― Douglas Horton
