A quotation from Asquith, Margot

Speaking for myself, I could never pray to be delivered from sudden death. It is how you live, and not how you die that counts, and sudden deaths are only sad for those who are left. It is not dying, but living, that is a preparation for Death.

Margot Asquith (1864-1945) British socialite, author, wit [Emma Margaret Asquith, Countess of Oxford and Asquith, née Tennant]
More Memories, ch. 11 (1933)
