“I'm not telling you to make the world better, because I don't
think that progress is necessarily part of the package. I'm just telling
you to live in it. Not just to endure it, not just to suffer it, not
just to pass through it, but to live in it. To look at it. To try to get
the picture. To live recklessly. To take chances. To make your own work
and take pride in it. To seize the moment. And if you ask me why you
should bother to do that, I could tell you that the grave's a fine and
private place, but none I think do there embrace. Nor do they sing
there, or write, or argue, or see the tidal bore on the Amazon, or touch
their children. And that's what there is to do and get it while you can
and good luck at it.”
