Letter "I" » immortals
«What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.»
«To be immortal is commonplace; except for man, all creatures are immortal, for they are ignorant of death; what is divine, terrible, incomprehensible, is to know that one is immortal.»
Author: Jorge Luis Borges

«One who contends with immortals lives a very short life»
«Some say that happiness is not good for mortals, and they ought to be answered that sorrow is not fit for immortals and is utterly useless to any one; a blight never does good to a tree, and if a blight kill not a tree but it still bear fruit, let none say that the fruit was in consequence of the blight.»
