We have only a little time to please the living. But all eternity to love the dead.

Death is not the worst; rather, in vainTo wish for death, and not to compass it.

In his den the monster keep, Giver of eternal sleep.

She could not keep his death in her head, like when she tried to imagine the infiniteness of the universe and nearly swooned at the vastness of the thought.

If I die, I will wait for you, do you understand? No matter how long. I will watch from beyond to make sure you live every year you have to its fullest, and then we’ll have so much to talk about when I see you again… (Bones)

Death may indeed be final but the love we share while living is eternal.
