Quote by Yuval Noah Harari
English (Source)
In reality (...) a person dies not because a hooded figure touches his shoulder, or because God orders him to do so, and not because mortality is part of some cosmic plan. People always die because of some technical error. The heart stops pumping blood. Some major arteries are blocked by fatty deposits. Cancer cells proliferate in the liver. Pathogens multiply in the lungs. And what causes these technical problems? Other technical issues. The heart stops pumping blood because it doesn't get enough oxygen. Cancer cells proliferate because an accidental genetic mutation rewrites their instructions. Germs get into our lungs because someone sneezed on us on the subway. There is nothing metaphysical about it. These are purely technical problems. And every technical problem has a technical solution.
