“Wisdom is not knowledge per se, nor a set of rules. It is not an ability or skill. And it is definitely not a thing we can acquire or even measure. Wisdom is simply a way of being in the world. It is a context for living.”
—Jim Selman
“I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dryrot.
I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificient 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
