About this Quote

This quote by Tennessee Williams speaks with the concept that life is made up of numerous minutes, while death is just one. It recommends that life is a journey, and that each minute is a part of that journey. It implies that life is precious and ought to be valued and taken pleasure in, as it is made up of so many moments. Death, on the other hand, is just one moment, and it is the end of the journey.

We must strive to make the most of our lives, and to make each minute count.
