I never read forwards but I read this one.Here it is:

Death is like almost as strange as life but life is almost as strange as a strange stranger

-David Dean Anderson

Whats it mean?

It means David Dean has "miles to go before he sleeps" and as far as I can tell, has nothing to say. Or if he does he didn't say it with those empty lines.

I have no idea what that poem means, but I'm going to e-mail that poem to all my friends to drive them crazy.

Death is like almost as strange as life but life is almost as strange as a strange stranger

-David Dean Anderson

That is a pretty cool quote, so true. Imo it means that death has its mysteries that life has. Like life you don't know what will happen or how death will happen to you. Life could end at any instant by the sight of a strange stranger (which I take as Death). When you meet up with Death, you know its bound to happen. How will it happen?

To make it clearer, everybody knows that people die. People may die on a plane, commit suicide, die of natural causes, car crash-whatever. You don't exactly know what happens when you die though. You know a person died in a car crash, but what happened to make that car crash? Did Death step in front of the car, and the victims swerve the car to avoid Death? Did the spirit of the victims just fly off to heaven or hell? Death is strange, which makes life strange.
