Memento Mori, memento vivere

Memento Mori, Memento Vivere—“Remember you must die, remember to live.” This profound Latin phrase weaves together the duality of human existence: the inevitability of death and the necessity of truly living. This phrase has inspired countless artists, thinkers, and writers throughout history. From the stoic reflections of Marcus Aurelius to the still-life paintings of the Vanitas tradition, it urges us to find balance—acknowledging mortality not as a source of fear but as a call to live boldly and intentionally.
