Thomas Nagel - Death [Philosophy Audiobook]

[@jamez5712]

if the time before birth and the time after death cannot be considered similar because death 'deprives' us of that extra time, why not think that the longer prenatal non existence persists, the longer it also 'deprives' us of the time to live? Essentially, if death robs us of the extra time, doesn't the abyss of not being born also rob us of the time we could've spent alive as well?
