“Man is literally split in two: he has an awareness of his own splendid uniqueness in that he sticks out of nature with a towering majesty, and yet he goes back into the ground a few feet in order blindly and dumbly to rot and disappear forever.” ― Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death Many entrepreneurs want to look beyond just founding a company, they are looking to leave a lasting tribute. To understand legacy in a larger context, one has to understand the root of such need and that stems from death. This slide deck captures Ernest Becker and Jason Silva's thoughts along those lines.
