"The life of adventure is the only life that makes sense. Adventure interpreted broadly, of course - to include not only physical action, exploration, but also human love, ideas and ideals, the arts, and the common and daily motion and conflict and trouble of everyday people doing the world's hard work, making everything else possible . . . Without this electric charge in the spirit, the world would not be the arena of infinite possibility and adventure it seems to me to be . . . Life is a bitch. And then you die? No: Life is a joyous adventure. And THEN you die."
Edward Abbey
