"از مردن نمیترسم، از تلاش نکردن میترسم"
— Jay Z
Simplified Meaning:
This quote is about the fear of missing out on opportunities rather than the fear of death itself. Imagine you have a dream to become a painter but you never pick up a brush because you are scared you won't be good at it. Even if you live a long life, you will always regret not giving it a try. This regret of not attempting something you wanted to do hurts more than the fear of death. It encourages people to take chances and pursue their goals, because living with the 'what ifs' can feel worse than failure or death. So, instead of letting fear stop you, it's better to try and maybe fail, than never try and always wonder what could have been.
