Even dying, Hitchens can turn a damn fine phrase:

"I have been taunting the Reaper into taking a free scythe in my direction and have now succumbed to something so predictable and banal that it bores even me. Rage would be beside the point for the same reason. Instead, I am badly oppressed by a gnawing sense of waste. "

It is a rare individual indeed who can consider his struggle with a life-threatening illness boring.
