“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 proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
– Jack London, via Rob Firchau, The Hammock Papers
“As Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart put it, ‘Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is the right thing to do.’ Merely complying with the law does not mean that you have behaved ethically.”
