age before brilliance?

a mind is a terrible thing to waste.
so is a life.

but which is worse: a wasted mind or wasted life?

would you rather live shorter and be more productive than visa versa?

if you could be the next rembrandt, the next beethoven, the next einstein, would you make do with a decreased life span?
or, is the gift of life so precious, so precious it defies personal accomplishment.
does the means justify the ends?

And now, good post.

As a Jew, I say life is most important when you utilize each moment to do the most you can to perfect this world, to strengthen your bond with your Creator, to help a fellow in distress...if you're doin that, life wins. If someone is destructive, on the other hand...
