Henry James once defined life as that predicament which precedes death, and certainly nobody owes you a debt of honor or gratitude for getting him into that predicament.

There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -

We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
