It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by providence as an evil to mankind.

Summary

This quote suggests that death, as a natural and inevitable part of life, cannot be seen as inherently evil or a negative aspect created by a higher power. The argument is that something as universal as death must serve a purpose within the providence of the universe, rather than being intended to bring harm to humanity. The quote challenges the notion that death is a tragic and malevolent force, encouraging a different perspective on its existence.
