Summary

This quote humorously highlights the tendency of people to suddenly have great admiration and appreciation for someone after they have passed away.

It touches on society's tendency to romanticize and idealize those who are no longer with us, while often overlooking or taking for granted the impact and value of individuals who are still alive.
