Quote

I don't just talk to the dead.

I ought not to speak about the dead because the dead are all over the place.

Tradition demands that we not speak poorly of the dead.

Since we have to speak well of the dead, let's knock them while they're alive.

I never speak ill of dead people or live judges.

I envy the dead.

If the dead talk to you, you are a spiritualist; if God talks to you, you are a schizophrenic.

No one may speak for the dead, no one may interpret their mutilated dreams and visions.

The dead govern the living.

Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them.
