Correct Marat
But man has given a false importance to death
Any animal plant or man who dies
adds to Nature’s compost heap
[... …]
Only an anonymous cheapened death
Which we could dole out to entire nations
On a mathematical basis
Until the time comes
For all life
To be extinguished

Peter Weiss. Marat/Sade. Marion Boyars Publishing, 1982. pp.32-34
