Transcript:
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 permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live not exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time. -Jack London

Bravo, Gavin Aung Than! Cynics among us might say, “Oh what about the great musicians who flamed out early?” (Hendrix, James Dean, Janis Joplin all died in their 20s); but I say living life to its fullest has nothing to do w longevity! Look at Jackie Chan (going strong at 68!); Paul McCartney (80) and Mick Jagger (79) ! Love your work, Gavin! Tally Ho!
