“The colonel, poor devil-we knew him afterwards-is now dead. It is strange that he is dead. There is something repulsive to me in the thought of him lying dead: such a humiliating, somehow degraded corpse. Death has no beauty in Italy, unless it be violent. The death of a man or woman through sickness is an occasion of horror, repulsive. They belong entirely to life, they are so limited to life these people.”
D.H. Lawrence, “John” , 1916.
