I think the Dwight quote is more inspirational. “YOLO” attitude- so sad. Every day you live, every moment is a fresh one- not next week or next month or New Years- but every second is a chance to say you want things to go differently. People live in fear of death, fear of missing out in life- they let it cause anxiety or cloud their judgment. But you’re only going to die that one time. You’re going to live every moment until then. Best to make them count and try to make sure that you don’t do anything particularly foolish to remove options for happiness from later moments, but you already know the beginning of this story- you were born. You already know the end- you die. So taking those moments of life and making the middle something meaningful is more important.

You're only born once.

But what if you die.... then rescusitate.... and die again? Or does the first not count as death if it wasn't permanent?

I think it means “dead” dead. You can be legally dead and come back, medically dead, brain dead, dead inside, dead to the world... but “dead” dead- well... that’s just dead. Although I guess technically many religions or spiritualities would say one doesn’t “die.” Life eternal, “pass from this world...” and so on. But we shall just say “dead” in that you aren’t ever on this earth going to surprise someone by deciding to show up at their house.

There's a big difference between dead, and mostly dead.

A yes. Mostly dead is still slightly alive. With all dead, there’s only one thing you can do...
