    Sherman Alexie
    “When it comes to death, we know that laughter and tears are pretty much the same thing.

    Each funeral was a funeral for all of us.

    We lived and died together.

    All of us laughed when they lowered my grandmother into the ground.

    And all of us laughed when they covered her with dirt.

    And all of us laughed as we walked and drove and rode our way back to our lonely, lonely houses.”

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
