About this Quote

This quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe highlights the concept that life is a preparatory stage for the afterlife. It suggests that people are like children who are growing up and developing, acquiring understanding and experience along the method. Life, therefore, can be viewed as a test duration for our souls that will reside on after our physical bodies have died. In this sense, the potential for immortality lies in how we live our lives and the choices we make while still alive. The quote invites reflection on the significance of the choices we make in our lives and urges us to live our lives with function and meaning.
