Quote of the day by Christopher Walken , “If you know how quickly people forget the dead, you will stop living to impress people,” focuses on the short nature of public attention and memory. The quote asks people to think about why they seek approval from others. It suggests that social attention does not last forever. People change their focus, relationships change and memories can fade. The message is not that other people do not matter. Instead, it asks people to place less importance on approval and more importance on their own values, happiness, purpose and relationships.
