    Jackson Burnett
    “A thousand years from now nobody is
    going to know that you or I ever lived. The cynic is
    right, but lazy. He says ‘You live, you die and nothing you do will ever make a difference.’ But as long as I live, I’m going to be like Beethoven and shake my fist at fate and try to do something for those who live here now and who knows how far into the future that will go. If I accomplish nothing more than making my arm sore, at least I will be satisfied that I have lived.”
    ― Jackson Burnett, The Past Never Ends
