And when we die, do we solve the mystery?

Or do we go like an unfinished ghost story and

it ends and we don't ever know. In my will,

I have my grave with a tree planted over my

grave. And I want the tree to take my sustenance

and grow. And that's a living thing that I wish

for. My children, my grandchildren, and all

that, of course, but... ...but that tree growing

because I supplied its original... ...uh, food,

makes me feel good. Is that something that maybe

takes some of the edge off of the fear around

death?

The idea that you will... You know, I vary between

the... the fear of death... My fear... I have

so much love around me. I have wife and children

and grandchildren. I even have two great-grandchildren.

And I have two great dogs. I've had dogs all

my life, all my adult life. So those animals

and those people and... and my life and talking

to you is such a joy. And being on stage, I

went on stage to this opera house and I could

hear my voice coming back to me. And this is

what I am. I'm a performer. I'm at home in the

theater. I'm at home in front of people making

them laugh. Sound of laughter made you laugh.

This is all my life is fertile, is vibrant,

is... And I don't want to leave it. And that's

the sadness. I don't want to go. Are you curious

though about what you will find out?

Not enough to die.
