Description:
"My parents used to pull the shades whenever a funeral passed our house. Then one morning when I was fourteen, my father fell across my bed gasping 'I've had a stroke and am going to die.' I pulled myself out from under him and ran down to tell my mother. He died two hours later and I learned that life and death are both important and that man must always reconcile the two." -Clarence Holbrook Carter, Philbrook Art Center, Tulsa, Oklahoma, March 1975
