Which is it better to be:
A Lancelot, who searched for the Grail but didn’t find it?
A Perceval, who saw the Grail but didn’t recognise it?
A Galahad, who found the Grail, recognised its significance,
then died almost immediately from a surfeit of ecstasy?
You’ve got to go for Galahad, haven’t you? Since we all have
to die some day, what better way to do it than in a state of ecstasy?
Of course, you could always be a denizen of the modern world
and never search for anything. That way you might get to die quietly, with memories.

Great minds think alike :)
Wouldn't know. My mind feels like a pan of cold porridge at the moment. It's still bubbling, though. Weird, that.
