Texsox Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2012/04/post_5.html a good start So many career highlights including a Pulitzer Prize. Definitely a Chicago treasure. I really appreciate his quote about dying . . . I know it is coming, and I do not fear it, because I believe there is nothing on the other side of death to fear. I hope to be spared as much pain as possible on the approach path. I was perfectly content before I was born, and I think of death as the same state. What I am grateful for is the gift of intelligence, and for life, love, wonder, and laughter. You can't say it wasn't interesting. My lifetime's memories are what I have brought home from the trip. I will require them for eternity no more than that little souvenir of the Eiffel Tower I brought home from Paris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 I thought someone might think that which is why I added the sub title. My daily quote email mentioned his career start and I spent an hour or so reading some of his stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
