Hamlet comes to the conclusion (in the previous sentence) that what comes after death must "give us pause"... must in a sense give us peace from the toils of life. So he concludes: "there's the respect that makes calamity of so long life." paraphrased: That is an angle(respect) that makes a long life seem rather like a bad thing(calamity) than a good thing.
Of course then he remembers that he really doesn't know for sure whether he will really get his "pause" after death...
In this line from Hamlet, Shakespeare explores the idea that a deep sense of respect or reverence for life can lead to prolonged suffering and inaction. Hamlet contemplates how fear of the unknown after death can prevent individuals from confronting their struggles, suggesting that respect for life's complexities can sometimes result in enduring rather than resolving calamity. This reflects a central theme in the play: the paralysis of thought and the consequences of hesitation in the face of existential dilemmas.
