Quotes by Nadine Matheson (?)

“I always find it odd when people say that of the dead. They had their whole life ahead of them. Clearly, they didn't because they're dead. We may not like the method of disposal but when it's your time to go, then it's your time to go.”
― Nadine Matheson, The Jigsaw Man
