About This Quote
Death itself is not the greatest pain. That would be the fear of dying. However, as humans, we must face death and accept it as a fact of life if we are to achieve true happiness. Death is implicit in every form of joy.
Of course, it also brings the end of pain. The greatest happiness we can know comes through acceptance and fulfilment on the other side.
