Not sure if this is related, but the title instantly reminded me of this passage from Genesis in the Bible at the Fall of Man. For Christians this is a common theme of death/dying and is brought up during Lent and at funerals. Not sure if appropriate to include in the trivia section:

Then to Adam He said, Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, You   shall not eat from it: Cursed is the ground because of you! In toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your face you will eat bread, till you return to the ground, because from it you were taken. For you are dust, and to dust you shall return.

(Genesis 3:17-19; New American Standard Bible)
