P. D. James Quotes:

Ocupation: Member of the House of Lords

Life: August 3, 1920 - November 27, 2014

Birthday: August 3

Death: November 27

The world of the terminally ill is the world of neither the living nor the dead. I have watched others since I watched my father, and always with a sense of their strangeness. They sit and speak, and are spoken to, and listen, and even smile, but in spirit they have already moved away from us and there is no way we can enter their shadowy no-man’s-land.
