This one had to be done sooner or later. Especially for a dark version where Novalis "goes Jordi" with her Word:

Novalis
"This used to be real estate,
Now it's only fields and trees.
Where, where is the town?
Now, it's nothing but flowers."
-- The Talking Heads, "Nothing But Flowers."

It's not exactly a Death quote, but it does fit this very old demon...

Saminga
"We always romanticize that our elders are wise, because of their years of experience. But you know what? Stupid people get older, too."
-- Matt "Dr. Heckle" Black, Seattle comedian.

Door Gunner: "Easy. You just don't lead 'em so much."

Novalis

It is not enough to be passersby on the digital highways, simply “connected”; connections need to grow into true encounters. We cannot live apart, closed in on ourselves. We need to love and to be loved.
- Pope Franciscus, Message for the 48th World Communications Day, 24 January 2014

:-D Hey, we believe in only using the best.

I think you've set a record, by the way. This may be the first proposed pullout quote on this thread that's ever received feedback from the author. :)
