Summary

This quote humorously observes how society tends to have an affinity for and romanticize individuals once they have passed away. In death, people become immortalized in the memories, stories, and collective consciousness of others. The quote highlights the ironic shift in people's perception, as the value and appreciation given to someone often increases posthumously, when it can no longer be directly shared with them. It suggests that perhaps we should express love and appreciation for those we care about while they are still alive.
