Die with Dignity??

"You live with dignity, you can't die with it." - Dr. House

I think it's really one of the best quote that just hits home run for me. How many times you heard the cliche statement, "at least I die with dignity." But have they ever thought that the precious one is not in dying but in living? Dr. House's quote made me realize that. He was confronting a patient who's giving up and asking him to allow to go home and die. "I just wanna die with a little dignity." But his reply was a harsh one,"There's no such thing. Our bodies break down. Sometimes when we are 90, sometimes before we are even born but it always happen and there's never any dignity in it. I don't care if you can walk, see, wipe your own ass. It's always ugly. Always. You live with dignity, you can't die with it."

I hope it will shed some light to some of you too. Live life with dignity.
