Death may be classic, but life is the greatest equalizer, children are a parent's humility, grandchildren are their revenge, great grandchildren a legacy.

The classic answer, and best answer to this question - Death is the Great Equalizer.
Everything before them is vanity since one fate comes to all, to the righteous and the wicked, to the good and the evil, to the clean and the unclean, to him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good man, so is the sinner; and he who swears is as he who shuns an oath. This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that one fate comes to all;... (Ecclesiastes 9:1b-3)
No matter what mountains a person may have climbed. No matter how may people someone may have hurt or helped. No matter how much money one has. No matter what, everyone will die. Death is the one part of life where everyone is equal - Death is the Great Equalizer.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

Of course it's Death. Never ask if you will die, but ask how and when, because your death is inevitable. That's why anyone who wants to rule the world is a dumbass unless you can come up with some way to keep your general essence attached to the world or prevent your flesh from decaying or something.
Death is indiscriminate, which makes me happy.
