“Ashes to Ashes and Dust to Dust, Atom to Atom, Returning to the ONE.”
Wake Up! Message
“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 shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.”
