This is the true
joy of life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty
one; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod
of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself
to making you happy.
I am of the opinion
that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I can live it
is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly
used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life
for its own sake. Life is no 'brief candle' to me. It is a sort of splendid
torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn
as brightly as possible before handing it in to future generations. George Bernard Shaw
