A Thursday Quote

Here's a great sentiment from the author Jack London (1876-1916):

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