Good design begins with honesty asks tough questions comes from collaboration and from trusting your intuition.

Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones.

I'm trying to knock the medical profession into accepting its responsibilities and those responsibilities include assisting their patients with death.

If death is in the room it's pretty interesting. But I would also say that I'm interested in getting myself to believe that it's going to happen to me. I'm interested in it because if you're not you're nuts. It's really de facto what we're here to find out about.

I mean Sting is one of my great buddies and I love him to death.

Death is an absolute mystery. We are all vulnerable to it it's what makes life interesting and suspenseful.

I think about death a lot like I think we all do. I don't think of suicide as an option but as fun. It's an interesting idea that you can control how you go. It's this thing that's looming and you can control it.

Drown in a cold vat of whiskey? Death where is thy sting?

There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.

In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion misery and death.
