Yea, though I walk through the valley

Doctoring

"The time has come to smash the last irrational and most fearsome taboo of planned death and thereby to open the floodgates of equally momentous benefit for humankind.... The positive euthanasia of obitiatry would...allow doctors for the first time to...[extend] the abstract spectrum of medicine into the opposite 'invisible infradeath' realm, where the real potential for serious investigation of the phenomenon of death is to be found."

From Prescription: Medicide: The Goodness of Planned Death by Jack Kevorkian, M.D. (Prometheus Books; 1991)
