Quote by William Shakespeare
Do you set down your name in the scroll of youth, that are written down old with all the characters of age?
Summary
This quote implies that one's actions and experiences in life are like inscriptions on a scroll. It suggests that even though we may be young and full of energy in our youth, the passage of time eventually writes down our name alongside the characters of age. In other words, no matter our youthful appearance, we cannot escape the inevitable effects of time on our bodies and the accumulation of wisdom and experiences that come with aging.
