About This Quote

Death is a lot of things. It’s often a very scary thing. But, it can also be a very beautiful thing as well. In this quote, Shakespeare captures the beauty of death as he says that “Death waits for no man.” If death were to come for you, you wouldn’t have a lot of time to enjoy the journey.

But the idea of death is so much more than just a fear of dying. To die, is to live again and to live again is to live with your memories and experiences from the past. Death allows us to leave our past behind and move on to our next life with our memories and experiences from that life still intact.
