Computers Quote by Loretta Ellsworth
““And I couldn't help but think about the time during the operation when there was nothing in my check: when they removed my heart, and before they put the other hear tin. When I was connected to the heart and lunch machine. When I was technically dead… But I wasn't dead now...””
