It's a lot easier, she realized, to be on the verge of something than to actually be it. This would still take time.
Markus Zusak
Image
It's about glowing lights and small things that are big.

I thought what if death is more like thinking, well, war is like the boss at your shoulder, constantly wanting more, wanting more, wanting more, and then that gave me the idea that Death is weary, he's fatigued, and he's haunted by what he sees humans do to each other because he's on hand for all of our great miseries.
