"Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.

No. William: Pretty rich coming from a ginger so I’m quite happy to let go of this one— Harry: Well, ah … [points his finger at the interviewer] William: But he’s a good-looking ginger so it’s all right.
