Leonardo Da VinciAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
About This Quote
The old saying, “As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death” could be interpreted in two ways. It can be taken in the sense that in order to have a good night’s rest, you have to use your life well. That same principle holds true when it comes to death, too. If you spend your life doing good things, then when you die, you will have had a good life.
