Caitlin Doughty Quote: “Whereas before a religious leader might preside over a dying person and guide the family in grief, now it was doctors who attended to a patient’s final moments. Medicine addressed life-and-death issues, not appeals to heaven.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “Sometimes I think about my childhood would have been different if I had been introduced directly to death. Made to sit in his presence, shake his hand. Told that he would be an intimate companion, influencing my every move and decision, whispering, “You are food for worms” in my ear. Maybe he would have been a friend.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “But ignorance is not bliss, only a deeper kind of terror. We.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “Strange, since corpse parts are used in medicine all the time. I found out that one of my friends has tissue from a cadaver butt in her mouth. Turns out quite a few people do. When gums are receding, due to teeth grinding or health issues, they can be rebuilt by implanting cells from the butt of a human cadaver. So, cadaver butt is in, but cadaver blood is out.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “What dignity translates to, more often than not, is silence, a forced poise, a rigid formality.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “Hundreds of years ago, across Europe, people afraid of witchcraft would seal cats inside the walls of their homes, believing they would ward off supernatural threats.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “We know that media vita in morte sumus or, “in the midst of life we are in death.” We begin dying the day we are born, after all.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “In many ways, women are death’s natural companions. Every time a woman gives birth, she is creating not only a life, but also a death. Samuel.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “A corpse doesn’t need you to remember it. In fact, it doesn’t need anything anymore-it’s more than happy to lie there and rot away. It is you who needs the corpse. Looking at the body you understand the person is gone, no longer an active player in the game of life. Looking at the body you see yourself, and you know that you, too, will die. The visual is a call to self-awareness. It is the beginning of wisdom.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “Though you may never have attended a funeral, two of the world’s humans die every second. Eight in the time it took you to read that sentence. Now we’re at fourteen. The dead space this process out nicely so that the living hardly even notice they’re undergoing the transformation. Unless.”
Caitlin Doughty Quote: “Written on the wall calendar in big, tragic letters was “September 17th: Maureen Dies.”
