Reality is a life sentence.

About This Quote

The idea that life sentences are better than death is an old notion. In fact, it goes back to the biblical story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. After eating the forbidden fruit of knowledge, they were cast out of paradise and sentenced to spend eternity in a world of hardship and pain. The idea of a life sentence is that it’s better than death.

It makes people who have lived through it wiser and more resilient, and by extension, they can be more effective when they get out. Life sentences do not always involve incarceration. They can also be severe injuries or illnesses that leave people helpless and unable to function in society.
