Quote by JeanPierre Melville
At birth man is offered only one choice --the choice of his death. But if this choice is governed by distaste for his own existence, his life will never have been more than meaningless.

Summary
This quote suggests that from the moment we are born, the only certainty we have is death. However, the quote highlights the importance of not allowing a dislike or distaste for our own existence to overshadow the meaning of our lives. If our perception of life is constantly negative, it will lead to a sense of meaninglessness in everything we do. Therefore, the quote encourages us to embrace life, find purpose, and make the most of our time on Earth, in order to create a meaningful and fulfilling existence.
