Terry Pratchett. Masquerade (№ 366147)

- Come on, - interrupted Death.
- But he just killed me! Strangled with my bare hands!
- LOOK AT IT FROM THE OTHER SIDE. THE FEELING WAS NOT PLEASANT, BUT IT'S YOUR PAST NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES.
That is to make I can not do anything?
- LEAVE IT ALIVE. IN FACT, PEOPLE FEEL SOMEWHAT UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN THE DEAD MAN SUDDENLY BEGINS TO PLAY AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THE INVESTIGATION OF HIS OWN MURDER. IT IS A LITTLE UNNERVING.
