“What if in the tomb I awake!”—Romeo and Juliet.

“How comes it about that patients, given over as dead by their physicians, sometimes recover, and that some have even returned to life in the very time of their funerals?”—Celsus.

“Such is the condition of humanity, and so uncertain is men’s judgment, that they cannot determine even death itself.”—Pliny.
