PHILOSOPHY

ANDREW: I hold this quote by Jack London close to my heart:

"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...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."

LAURA: peace, love, and tolerance.
