Take death for example: |
| [00:09.63] |
A great deal of our effort goes into avoiding it. |
| [00:12.09] |
We make extraordinary efforts to delay it, |
| [00:14.05] |
And often consider it's intrusion a tragic event. |
| [00:17.40] |
Yet, we find it hard to live without it. |
| [00:20.15] |
Death gives meaning to our lives. |
| [00:21.95] |
It gives importance and value to time. |
| [00:24.31] |
Time would become meaningless |
| [00:25.96] |
If there were too much of it. |
| [00:27.98] |
If death were indefinitely put off, |
| [00:30.13] |
The human psyche would end up... |
| [00:32.40] |
Well, like the end of a twilight zone episode. |
