Editor’s Note: “Words that Never Die” is a weekly installment of compelling quotes from the world’s most influential people. This week, we highlight an excerpt from Efua T. Sutherland’s book “EDUFA.”
Crying the death day of another
Is crying your own death day.
While we mourn for another
We mourn for ourselves.
One’s death is the death of all mankind.
Comfort! Comfort to us all,
Comfort!
Have your say
