English translation

Every life leads, in the end, to death.

Literal wording

The end of life is death.

Meaning and lesson

The saying presents death as the inevitable endpoint of life. It can prompt a sober reflection on mortality and the limits of human life.

In the face of intimidation, that same thought can express defiance: a threat of death holds less power over someone who has already accepted that life will end.

When it is used

Use it as a reminder of mortality in a reflective exchange. In response to a threat, it can instead convey that the speaker refuses to be frightened into submission.
