Schopenhauer interprets death as the aim and purpose of life. He maintains that to live is to suffer, that the triumph of death is inevitable and that existence is a constant dying.
Heidegger regards mortality as man's defining characteristic. Dasein individuates itself by choosing among its possibilities. Yet with every choice, it annuls all other possibilities.

It rather feels like I had much too little.
