As long as you keep getting born, it's all right to die sometimes
by Orson Scott Card
(0 Reviews)

In "Speaker for the Dead," Orson Scott Card presents a thought-provoking perspective on life and death. The quote, "As long as you keep getting born, it's all right to die sometimes," suggests that life is a cycle of rebirth and renewal. It implies that each ending leads to a new beginning, making death a natural part of existence rather than something to fear.

This view encourages acceptance of mortality, reflecting a deeper understanding of life’s transience. It highlights the importance of embracing change and growth, indicating that as we continue to experience life, the inevitability of death is merely one aspect of the broader journey. The sentiment invites readers to find solace in the continuity of life and the idea that every death can be a precursor to new beginnings.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
