“The weight of this sad time we must obey, Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say. The oldest hath borne most: we that are young Shall never see so much, nor live so long.”
“The shortness of life, so often lamented, may be the best thing about it.”
“Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.
