Words from a great man I admire and thankful.

In an interview for an upcoming book, Lee said he was prepared for his wife's death.
"I cannot choose how I'm going to go. I just carry on my life and that's that. If you start thinking about it, you will go downhill. Every day is a bonus, so let's carry on," Lee said.
Eugene Tan, a law professor at the Singapore Management University, told AFP that concerns over Lee's health were understandable but stressed the veteran leader's "stoicism and sense of duty."
"MM Lee is in a robust state of health for someone his age," Tan said, adding that "it may well be that MM Lee will now devote all his time and energy to
his life project, Singapore."
