About This Quote

This quote is important because it was written by the author of 'The House of Mirth'. The quote is very sad, yet significant. It highlights the fact that the people in this story are uneducated and do not understand life. They don't understand that time is running out for them.

People today are only concerned about having fun and living in the moment. They do not realise that they will most likely die in this life, just like Magnus did. They do not understand that the world is a huge place, full of dangerous things that could destroy them.
