This quote reminds us that failure is often associated with the outcome of our efforts, but it doesn't define our worth or identity. Even in the face of death or setbacks, our intrinsic value remains, and life holds qualities beyond mere success or failure. Embracing this perspective can foster resilience and reduce fear of failure, encouraging us to take risks and live authentically without the paralyzing fear of ultimate failure. It's a comforting reminder that the true measure of a person isn't in the failures they encounter, but in their willingness to continue despite challenges.

Maybe that'd make you feel better too. — David Mitchell

You go first.Go through the door before me.Enter the limousine while I wait by your side.Enter the shops while I stand behind, guarding your back.Sit at the table before me.Please, sample the tastiest morsels while I sit quietly.

Mitch," he said, "the culture doesn't encourage you to think about such things until you're about to die. We're so wrapped up in egotistical things, career, family, having enough money, meeting the mortgage, getting a new car, fixing the radiator when it breaks - we're involved in trillions of little acts just to keep going.
