John Keats
b. 10-31-1795; England
d. 2-23-1821; tuberculosis

John Keats, one of the most important Romantic poets, was granted an apothecary licence but chose instead to dedicate his life to poetry.

John Keats quotes ~
• “A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness.”
• “'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,' - that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.”
• “Poetry should be great and unobtrusive, a thing which enters into one's soul, and does not startle it or amaze it with itself, but with its subject.”

Between the Dying and the Dead: Dr. Jack Kevorkian's Life and the Battle to Legalize Euthanasia
Between the Dying
and the Dead:
Dr. Jack Kevorkian's Life and the Battle to Legalize Euthanasia

Jack Kevorkian
b. 5-26-1928; Pontiac, MI
d. 6-3-2011; Royal Oak

Medical pathologist Dr. Jack Kevorkian was the controversial doctor who challenged the social taboos about disease and dying, defying prosecutors and courts to help terminally ill patients end their lives at times of their own choosing, initiated the interest and practice of hospice care in the U.S.

Kevorkian spent eight years in prison after being convicted of second-degree murder in the death of the last of the more than 100 patients whose suicides he assisted starting in 1990.

Jack Kevorkian quotes ~
• “The American Medical Association says the humane way is to let people starve and thirst to death. If you did that to an animal, you'd be put in jail immediately ... In the face of such insanity masquerading as authority, who wouldn't be strident?”
• “This could never be a crime no matter what words are written on paper... just like it was never a crime to drink beer, even though words on paper said it was, and that women were too dumb to vote.”

Mary Kingsley
b. 10-13-1862; England
d. 6-3-1900; South Africa

In 1893 Mary Kingsley broke free from taking care of her bedridden mother and the accompanying handyman, nursemaid and servant duties, to travel West Africa, enduring the heat and hardships in her high-necked blouse, long skirt, and Victorian boots. She wrote of her travel adventures that could not have been predicted from her humble, self educated, beginnings.
