I live with Him -- I see his face -- I go no more away For Visitor -- or Sundown-- Death's single privacy Dreams -- are well -- but Waking's better, If One wake at Morn -- If One wake at Midnight - better -- Dreaming -- of the Dawn -- This is my letter to the World That never wrote to me-- The simple News that Nature told-- With tender Majesty In those years, Dickinson seems to have found her "voice" as a poet.

Well, if we see that our death is inevitable and we really internalize that fact, perhaps that would reduce the badness of it.
如果我们清楚死去无可避免,并且真正承认这个事实,也许这样会减少它的坏处。
It's possible that the causes of death are the same; it's possible they've changed, but we'll see.
可能死亡原因还是一样的,也可能已经不同,我们一会儿就知道了
But at second glance we see that there is at least a possibility of, a logical possibility of surviving the death of my body.
但再看第二眼我们就会发现,至少还有一种可能,逻辑上来说还有一种,肉体死亡后复活的可能。
See, I set before you this day life and prosperity, death and adversity.
看呐,我今日将生与福,死与祸,陈明在你面前。
The first is the Triumph of Death, where you see what happens in real battle when people are just sort of slaughtered, and the commanders are off at a safe distance.
这一幅叫做《死亡的胜利》,你会看到真正的战争场面,人们在互相残杀,而指挥官们却在隔岸观火
It's easy to see how you might think, how you might worry about the badness of death, if you thought you would survive your death.
如果你认为经历过死亡依然能存活,你会怎么想象和担心死亡的坏处,就很容易看出来了。
Freud says, After all, one's own death is beyond imagining, and whenever we try to imagine it we can see that we really survive as spectators.
弗洛伊德说,说到底,人自己的死亡都是无法想象的,无论何时要想象,都会发现自己依然作为观察者存活着。
So I've put this very handy little chart on the board for you listing codes on one side. And you'll see the kinds of things that are punished you pay a certain amount of money to compensate for the death.
我在黑板上画了这个图,一边列出了,这些法典,你可以看到一些被处以,你可以付一定数额的钱作为对死者的赔偿。
So it's not, as I say altogether straightforward to see how the answer " "Death is bad for me, because when I'm dead I don't exist" how that answers the problem as opposed to simply focusing our attention on the problem ? How can nonexistence be bad for me?
所以这并不是,就像我说的,那么简单可以领会到这个答案,“死亡对我来说不好,因为我死了我就不存在了“,如何回答了这个问题,和我们仅仅把关注点放在问题本身相反,不存在怎么可能对我来说有坏处呢?
In this case, death from heart disease and what you see here, and I'll tell you what relative risk is in just a minute, but this is basically risk for disease over on this axis and here its weight.
