"But life itself was different from all the activities it contained. People were comfortable when there was no idea when life would end, it was certainty that replaced blind, trusting optimism with melancholy and fear. When a doctor hands you an end date, while everyone else you know has no idea how long their life will be, you will walk your last days amongst people with less certainty, envying them."
