"..and when you make love to her, you feel true and beautiful passion and you, for at least that moment, lose your fear of death.
I believe love that is true and real creates a respite from death. All cowardice comes from not loving or loving well, which is the same thing. And when the man who is brave and true looks death squarely in the face it is because they loved with sufficient passion to push death out of their minds. Until it returns, as it does for all men. And then you must make really good love again...Think about it."
