Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is smile back.

Marcus Aurelius
About This Quote

Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is smile back. Death smiles at us all. It is not waiting for someone to come along to take care of it. It is not shrinking away when we try to avoid it.

It does not give up until the day we die. We must accept this fact and do what we can to make the smile last longer.
