Death Quote by Kyung-sook Shin
““Growing old does not make us any better at loving one another or understanding the meaning of life or death. Nor does knowledge come with the passage of time.””
About This Quote
Aging does not automatically improve love, understanding, or wisdom; time alone doesn't guarantee insight.

Seek growth actively, not just through aging.
