“When death comes too near, comedy and tragedy fall silent.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“The techniques of opening conversation are universal. I knew long ago and rediscovered that the best way to attract attention, help, and conversation is to be lost.

—John Steinbeck (1902–1968)
