Is WvB really Bossuet?

[Tim Ware]

Hello all:

I just found an interesting quote by that mad Frenchman Bossuet imbedded 
as prelude to the Calvino story "Mitosis" in _t zero_, to wit:

"Everything summons us to death; nature, as if envious of the good she 
has done us, announces to us often and reminds us that she cannot leave 
us for long that bit of matter she lends us, which must not remain in the 
same hands, and which must eternally be in circulation: she needs it for 
other forms, she asks it back for other works."

 - Bossuet, _Sermon sur la mort_

Has a bit of a ring, eh?

Tim
