    “The child who enters life comes not with knowledge or intent,
    So those who enter death must go as little children sent.

    And as life is to the living, so death is to the dead.”
    —Mary Mapes Dodge (1831–1905)

    “In Flanders fields the poppies blow
    Between the crosses, row on row,”
    —John McCrae (1872–1918)

    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
