"That's what they're for, epitaphs, Andrew suddenly realized. So you can feel you've got some control over the death, you own it, you choose a name for it. The same with wanting to know all you can about how it happened."
From A Death in the Family, James Agee

Credit where it's due: this is the epigraph from Halina's essay "The Company She Keeps."
