The best way to get praise is to die.

Summary

This quote suggests that one can only truly receive praise and recognition for their accomplishments after they have passed away. It implies that the fullest recognition of someone's value often comes too late and is only given posthumously.

This view could also be seen as a commentary on the fleeting nature of fame and the irony that one may need to be absent in order to be truly celebrated.
