Now comes the mystery.
Friends applaud, the comedy is over.
I don't fell good.
The fog is rising.
My work is done why wait.
More light!

It is well, I die hard, but I am not afraid to go. [Dec. 14, 1977]
Go away...I'm alright.
The best of it is, God is with us.
And now, I am dying beyond my means. [Sipping champagne on his deathbed]
