Quotes by Wolf Erlbruch (?)

“For a long time he watched her. When she was lost to sight, he was almost a little moved. But that's life, thought death.”
― Wolf Erlbruch, Ente, Tod und Tulpe

“Lange schaute er ihr nach.
Als er sie aus den Augen verlor, war der Tod fast ein wenig betrübt.
Aber so war das Leben.”
― Wolf Erlbruch, Duck, Death and the Tulip

“Ibland kunde döden läsa tankar.
– När du är död är också dammen borta – åtminstone för dig.
– Är du alldeles säker på det, frågade Anden förvånat.
– Så säker som på någonting annat, sa Döden.
– Det är bra. Då behöver jag inte sörja över den när...
– ...du är död, sa Döden.”
― Wolf Erlbruch, Duck, Death and the Tulip
