    Losing life is a trifle and I will have that courage when I need it. But to see the meaning of this life vanishing, our reason for existing disappearing, that is what I cannot stand. No one can live without reason.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    The fact that life has no meaning is a reason to live—moreover, the only one.
    E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)

    From man’s blood-sodden heart are sprung
    Those branches of the night and day
    Where the gaudy moon is hung.
    What’s the meaning of all song?
    “Let all things pass away.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
