Whatever happens happens. If something happens, something happens. But I believe in God, and I pray every day.

Don Lemon

Most death now happens in hospitals. It's been medicalized. It happens away from where we deal with it directly. And that's a huge change. At the beginning of the 20th century most people died at home. Death was much more common.

Joan Didion
