    “I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong.” -Richard Feynman (but he came up with the theory of QCD and won the Nobel Prize in physics so what does he know? (A: Nothing))

    "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 and permanent planet.
    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. " - Jack London

    rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal."
