About
´´Some day soon, perhaps in forty years, there will be no one alive who has ever known me. That´s when i will be truly dead - when i exist in no one´s memory. I thought a lot about how someone very old is the last living individual to have known some person or a cluster of people. When that person dies, the whole cluster dies, too, vanishes from the living memory. I wonder who that person will be for me. Whose death will make me truly dead?´´
