“我常常想自己会怎样死去。我父亲长期受到肺病的折磨，最近刚过世。他无法掌控自己的人生，最后一年过得极其痛苦。我不希望自己像他那样离开人世。如果我能选择，我希望佩特能先我一步离开人世。这么说也许看起来有点冷酷无情，而事实上自打我们结婚以后，我就答应一辈子爱她、尊重她、照顾她。如果她先我离去，那么我就完成自己的誓言了。要是她活得比我长寿，由于我没有保险，她的余生将无以为继。要是我这个愿望能够实现，我就把房屋地契给儿子，然后天天去河边钓鳟鱼。等到年老体衰，连鱼都钓不动了，我会带大量吗啡逃入山林，挑个没人能找到我的绝世景地躺下，一边欣赏美景，一面注射吗啡。这就是我心目中的最佳死法：既能选择死亡方式，人世最后一眼看到的又是难以忘怀的蒙大拿。”
“I often think about how I would want to die. My own father recently died a slow death of lung disease. He lost control over his own life, and his last year was painful. I don't want to die that way. It may seem cold-blooded, but here is my fantasy of how I would die if I had my choice. In my fantasy, Pat would die before me. That's because, when we got married, I promised to love, honor, and take care of her, and if she died first, I would know that I had fulfilled my promise. Also, I have no life insurance to support her, so it would be hard if she outlived me. After Pat died—my fantasy continues—I would turn over the deed of the house to my son Cody, then I would go trout-fishing every day as long as I was physically in condition to do it. When I became no longer capable of fishing, I would get hold of a large supply of morphine and go off a long way into the woods. I would pick some remote place where nobody would ever find my body, and from which I could enjoy an especially beautiful view. I'd lie down facing that view and—take my morphine. That would be the best way to die: dying in the way that I chose, with the last sight I see being a view of Montana as I want to remember it."
