Play 2016 / The Best Of The Year
“Life has got longer – maybe not such a good idea because the extra years add only quantity, scarcely quality – and evolution planned time into its agenda for us. Maybe three score years and ten is just about right. There are seven billion of us. Why be selfish and insist on longevity? Let’s dance away to death. We could go accompanied by drums and fiddles. Few get such an accompaniment in life.”
