One wants to live, of course, indeed one only stays alive by virtue of the fear of death, but I think, as I thought then, that it is better to die violently and not too old.

We're so old that the winds of age echo along our ribs and pick at our eye sockets. We could be gone tomorrow. A chill, say, or a little slip on the cliff side. I feel as fragile as a dried flower.

Life versus Death becomes, as Montaigne pointed out, Old Age versus Death.

They are not long, the weeping and the laughter,

Doth but a trembling flicker cast.
Honor to age, ye children pay!
Alas! my fifty years are past!
