The origin of the proverb "whom the gods love die young" is often linked to ancient Greek beliefs, where it was thought that the gods took those they favored from the world at a young age to prevent them from experiencing life's suffering. The saying reflects the idea that those who are deeply cherished or marked for greatness may have short lives. Over time, the proverb has been used to express the idea that the most virtuous or exceptional people often die young, bringing both admiration for their qualities and sadness for their early departure.
