• I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the
  whole community, and as long as I 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
  s a sort of splendid torch . . .     
• George Bernard Shaw
