Quote by John Green
The oblivion fear is something else, fear that I won't be able to give anything in exchange for my life. If you don't live a life in service of a greater good, you've gotta at least die a death in service of a greater good, you know? And I fear that I won't get either a life or a death that means anything.
Summary
This quote reflects an individual's fear of insignificance and the desire to leave a positive impact on the world. The fear of oblivion stems from the worry that their life will have no significant purpose or contribution. They believe that a life devoid of serving a greater good must, at the very least, end in a death that holds meaning. The individual's fear revolves around not being able to find purpose and significance in both life and death, highlighting the importance they place on making a lasting impact on others and leaving behind a meaningful legacy.
