Smug

To be smug means not being aware of your own mortality.

Life and death

Life and death aren’t opposites, but complementary.

Friends

Most of the people that I’d like to be friends with are dead. One day, this will be entirely true.

Mortality

Whenever I think about my own mortality, it always seems impossible that I would die.

Self-forgetfulness

At the core of all human activities is self-forgetfulness, as a device for dealing with the temporal nature of our lives.

Hope

All we can hope for in this life is to die on time.

Skill

The greatest skill you can learn in life is – how to live. Too bad that, once you’ve acquired it, you’re about to die.

If you haven’t succeeded till you’re fifty, you should be worried;
If you haven’t succeeded till you’re sixty, you should pretty much give it up;
If you haven’t succeeded even when you’re 70 – your only hope is to outlive everyone else.
