Quote by Jean Cocteau

The day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.

The day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking

Summary

This quote suggests that since the moment of our birth, the countdown to our death has commenced. The idea of death approaching slowly signifies the inevitability and natural progression of life's passage. It suggests that death is simply a part of the human experience, gradually drawing near but never rushing or unpredictable. It serves as a reminder to recognize the fleeting nature of life and to appreciate each moment as a precious opportunity.
