With all of the time I have, I am an insult to the dead.
In context, the person is saying they feel like they are wasting their life and that innumerable people in the past would've killed to have the kind of free time or life they have.
It reminds me to be grateful for both the time I have alive and the quality of that time.
I find it extremely motivating in pursuing my various personal pursuits. I should seem like a Renaissance master to the people of the past and anything less is insulting.
I don't know where this quote originated. I first heard it from my future SO and it goes something like this
"It is human nature to assume that once we have found the answer, we will find peace. Instead, one must find peace first, then the answer will come."
"if you poo you also pee, but if you pee you don't always poo"
what's the hell do you boys think that this is a fucking fairyland? pulling on you wee-wees like a pack of fucking fruits?
