“A photograph is but a complacent moment, frozen and lifeless, without the ability to change. But we have the ability to make change. Call it choice. Call it will. If the world has become complacent, that would mean that man, himself, has become complacent. And man, at his core and by his most glowing and ideal nature, is a being who rejects complacency. The good want the better, the better want the best, and, for the best, nothing exists that satisfies. The best among us create their own sustenance. Action is evidence of one’s soul, he concluded. He then refined his conclusion: actions exhibit one’s soul. But if that’s true, what is a world without action?” — Lucid Fitzpatrick
