&quot;The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.&quot;<br /> -Elizabeth Kubler Ross

&quot;Dear Roberta Sparrow, I have reached the end of your book and... there are so many things that I need to ask you. Sometimes I&#039;m afraid of what you might tell me.

I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to.&quot;
