"When someone's body can no longer perform its functions in the natural world...then we say that the individual has died... The person, though, has not died at all, but is only separated from the physical nature that was useful in the world...the essential person is still alive because we are not people because of our bodies but because of our spirits. After all, it is the spirit within us that thinks, and thought and affection together make us the people we are."
