“Whatever’s there to feel, feel it – the riddance, the relief, the fright and freedom, the fear of forgetting, the dull ache of your own mortality. Get with someone you can trust with tears, with anger, and wonderment and utter silence. Get that part done – the sooner the better. The only way around these things is through them.”
― Thomas Lynch, The Undertaking: Life Studies from the Dismal Trade

“The flush toilet, more than any single invention, has 'civilized' us in a way that religion and law could never accomplish.”
― Thomas Lynch, The Undertaking: Life Studies from the Dismal Trade

“There's no easy way to do this.
So do it right:
weep, laugh, watch, pray, love,
live, give thanks and praise;
comfort, mend, honor,
and remember.”
― Thomas Lynch
