“I would rather have strong enemies than a world of passive individualists. In a world of passive individualists nothing seems worth anything simply because nobody stands for anything. That world has no convictions, no victories, no unions, no heroism, no absolutes, no heartbeat. That world has rigor mortis.”
Criss Jami“A stiff attitude is one of the phenomena of rigor mortis.”
Henry S. Haskins“Mathematics brought rigor to economics. Unfortunately it also brought mortis.”
Kenneth E. Boulding“Those who shun the whimsy of things will experience rigor mortis before death.”
Tom Robbins“...and we'll see what happens when we say Yes while this rigor mortis world screams No.”
Isaac Marion, Warm Bodies“Sine doctrina vita est quasi mortis imago" [Without learning, life is but the image of death]”
Dionysius Cato“Why did you laugh right before you lost consciousness.”“Death’s an adventure. I lived big. Rigor mortis makes your face stick. So, who knew how to thaw me?”“Death’s an insult.”“At least an affront,” I agree.”
Karen Marie Moning, Iced“Why do we resist the mystery that change brings? When we get too rigid and inflexible, rigor mortis of the soul sets in. For proof of this, we need look no further than to those who choose to stay in a relationship or job long after the soul, or life force, that originally brought it passion and joy has vacated the premises.”
Dennis Merritt Jones, The Art of Uncertainty: How to Live in the Mystery of Life and Love It“I am beginning to be sorry that I ever undertook to write this book. Not that it bores me; I have nothing else to do; indeed, it is a welcome distraction from eternity. But the book is tedious, it smells of the tomb, it has a rigor mortis about it; a serious fault, and yet a relatively small one, for the great defect of this book is you, reader. You want to live fast, to get to the end, and the book ambles along slowly; you like straight, solid narrative and a smooth style, but this book and my style are like a pair of drunks; they stagger to the right and to the left, they start and they stop, they mutter, they roar, they guffaw, they threaten the sky, they slip and fall...And fall! Unhappy leaves of my cypress tree, you had to fall, like everything else that is lovely and beautiful; if I had eyes, I would shed a tear of remembrance for you. And this is the great advantage in being dead, that if you have no mouth with which to laugh, neither have you eyes with which to cry.”
Machado de Assis, Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas“Amatus waited a long time, but at last he broke the silence."There is much I don't unders”
John Barnes, One for the Morning Glory
