Biography is one of the new terrors of death.

Summary

This quote suggests that the idea of one's life being documented and remembered after their death can be fearful. In the modern era, with the emergence of biographies and the digital age, there is an increased emphasis on preserving and sharing personal stories. However, the quote implies that the looming prospect of one's entire life being dissected and exposed can be intimidating, and perhaps unsettling to think about what will be uncovered and how they will be remembered.
