"**Death wakes people up, and the closer it gets, the more awake and aware we become**. When the end is near, we suddenly start thinking, What the hell am I doing? Why did I wait this long? Until then, most of us go through life as if we had all the time in the world. ([Location 77](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B07T5LSF1J&location=77))"
