Curtains Quotes

“Scatter where you want, bury where you wish, but do something with intent, don't be passive and follow what commissioned pre-need salesmen consider the norm. Use your imagination, balance your own spiritual beliefs with guesswork, but do the work: accept that we know nothing about death, take a leap of faith, and have the courage to act anyway.”
― Tom Jokinen, Curtains: Adventures of an Undertaker-in-Training

“You should respect death and respect the dead, not out of fear, but because it's the proper human thing to do.”
― Tom Jokinen, Curtains: Adventures of an Undertaker-in-Training

“We worship entertainment as much as technology, and there's nothing less entertaining than grief. That's why God invented lorazepam, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and vodka and television - which in my experience work best in combination, with a pizza.”
― Tom Jokinen, Curtains: Adventures of an Undertaker-in-Training
