After Death,

It Is irrational to think death ends
all, for then life is gone and annihi-
lated. and it is just as though it had
never been. A life can in nowise be
destroyed by death. What has once
been experienced is an eternal and in
delible constituent of reality never
more to be erased or altered 1t is a
foolish doubt which Karl Moor ex-
presses with the pistol in his hand, IF
the paltry pressure Of this paltry thing
makes the wise man and the fool, the
coward and the hero. the noble and the
villain, equal That cannot be. Death
sewers the thread of the earthly life,
but the content of life can neither be
altered nor annihilated by it. Reality
is eternal in its essence. Nothing that
is real can. to quote Angelus Silesius,
ever perish and cease. to be.-Professor
Friedrich Paulsen. University Of Ber-
lin, in "A System Of Ethics"
