Meaning
This reads as a refusal to measure life by length alone. It can be taken to mean that love, peace, and joy make existence fuller than a much longer stretch marked by fear and resentment, and it lands when someone is choosing what kind of life is worth protecting. The contrast is simple, but it presses on the value of quality over duration.
