"Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything." (line 28)

Explanation:

The given passage is from the monologue of Jacques in William Shakespeare's romantic comedy play "As You Like It". The monologue, more commonly known as "The Seven Ages of Man" presents the various stages of a man's life.

The main theme of the poem/ monologue is how life ends in nothingness. Despite the many stages of being a schoolboy, lover, judge, getting old, etc, a man's life is just full of that seven stages and then ends in nothing. He goes back to being a child and then becomes oblivious.

This theme is supported by the very last line of the poem "Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything." This line perfectly sums up a man's life, starting with nothing, from oblivion and then going back to oblivion, doing a full circle.
