Afraid of death Quote by George Orwell

“I am afraid of death. You are young, so presumably you're more afraid of it than I am. Obviously we shall put if off as long as we can. But it makes very little difference. So long as human beings stay human, death and life are the same thing.” quote by George Orwell — Download Open image
