Emily Carr Quotes:

Ocupation: Artist

Life: December 13, 1871 - March 2, 1945

Birthday: December 13

Death: March 2

Indians do not hinder the progress of their dead by embalming or tight coffining. When the spirit has gone they give the body back to the earth. the earth welcomes the body-coaxes new life and beauty from it, hurries over what men shudder at. Lovely tender herbage bursts from the graves, swiftly, exulting over corruption.
