Quote by Albert Camus
It's no use reminding yourself daily that you are mortal: it will be brought home to you soon enough
Summary
This quote suggests that constantly reminding oneself about our mortality is futile because the reality of our own mortality will eventually become apparent to us in due time. It implies that despite attempts to avoid or ignore the idea of death, it is inevitable and will naturally confront us at some point in our lives. Therefore, it advises against dwelling on this fact and instead encourages us to focus on living our lives fully and making the most of our time.
