A Very Easy Death

  1. Simone de Beauvoir

    “There is no such thing as a natural death: nothing that happens to a man is ever natural, since his presence calls the world into question. All men must die: but for every man his death is an accident and, even if he knows it and consents to it, an unjustifiable violation.”

    Simone de Beauvoir
