meanwhile, your comment on changing in order to be immortal is valid, but i completely disagree. as i consider life to be a constant struggle to change, i am always in persuit of changing myself for the good. and i consider making the change to immortality would be a great step forward. |
The artist quote... is was somehow a joke but somehow true because you continue to influence the world after your death.
Okey, but what is immortality? (I love to get the definition of words
).
Is it to "never die"... Dying is... losing your consciousness with no way back or so... so being immortal doesn't means you can not be like almost a plant forever... or even in comma. I think what we want to avoid is damage. If something was "very damaged" but alive... I don't think he would want to live forever... well, maybe yes... but as the damage went bigger...
There's a Greek Gods legend about it... I think some God punished some other or some man, by making an eagle destroy the man's chest and heart and when the man was about to die... the God gave to him a brand new heart then the eagle started again... so forever.
