I liked the quote until I started to think of the negative parameters of such a saying. It comes down to who is saying it < their intention.
‘I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.’ - Ted Bundy
v.s.
‘I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.’ - Betty White
Well, to come back to your post they chose to live like that to a degree. I guess for themselves it was nice.
