Dead and buried.

Why hurry?

Linger.

      Perhaps this is the core of the teaching. I was surprised to find He had sleepovers with girls, though I think it is progressive, and “I am all in favor of it, of course”. Vonnegut notices that Lazurus doesn’t say much after coming back from the grave, though this appears to often be the case. “Time is the room where everything fits” Wendy and Richard Pini
      He deserves privacy, we all do.
