The Comforts of Children

One of the many comforts of having children is knowing one's youth has not fled, but merely been passed down to a new generation. They say when a parent dies, a child feels his own mortality. But when a child dies, it's immortality that a parent loses. 

Constance Langdon from American Horror Story: Murder House "Halloween Part 2"

We really do still exist in our children even when we die. Our children carry us around with them in their memories and in the parts of their personalities that mirror us.
