"If a man can bridge the gap between life and death, if he can live on after he's dead, then maybe he was a great man."

  3. Look at War-vets and Terri Schiavo from a couple years back, death isn't always a bad thing. It's often the ashes for a new phoenix to rise out of.

    Regardless if death is inevitable, that's fine, I think it's what happens after that is what is important, or will be.

    I think that's what the quote is getting at;
    Past. Present. Future. Great people must do great things for everyone.

    Then people can move on and look back, and maybe say they were great.
