quote of the day - being ashes rather than dust

"I would rather be ashes than dust!  I would rather my spark should burn out in a blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot.  I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than asleep and permanent as a planet.  The proper function of man is to live, not to exist.  I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them.  I shall use my time."

- Jack London
