"Maybe this wasn't a good way to think, he told himself, but when you heard the clock ticking in your life, there was no worse disservice you could do to yourself than to entertain a lie. Death was bad only when you had to face it knowing that you had failed to live during the time allowed to you, or that you had lied to yourself about the realities of the world or willingly listened to the lies of others."
From "Feast Day of Fools" by James Lee Burke
