I was able to find the quote that we discussed with the group on friday.Your memory definitly serves you better than mine; it was a quote fromGeorge Bernard Shaw. However, he was referring to shakespeare'sMacbeth. Here is the exact quote by Shaw: Life is not a briefcandle. Itis a splendid torch that I want to as brightly as possible make burn beforehanding it on to future generations.
I was glad to to see that so many of our classmates are living lives as"splendid torches" rather than as "brief candles."
