Survival
"If quick, I survive. If not quick, I am lost. This is death"
Sun Tzu, 544-496 BC
Chinese military general and philosopher
His material used to be required readings where that art is taught. This item is directed to field command. ie: If you're gonna wait to be told what to do, you're already dead.
This quote is not from his primary work: The Art of War.
Actually had fun with this with some social worker folks during an extended duscussion related to folks with "Street Smarts".

Love love love! Sun Tzu was clearly a military and Phil genius. What inspiration for a man much ahead of his time. I just wrote this quote on my bathroom mirror. Thx for sharing, "UC!"
*This topic will self destruct in one week, per special requests to write/post weekly PHIL 201 writing prompts. It's my pleasure to encourage more of you genuine, geeks like me to let your voices be heard via literature & philosophy. You brighten my days! Thank you.
Good evening,
LLL

No one else?
Well then here's another:
------------------
The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival. - Aristotle
Although somewhat self explanatory, does not awareness lead to enjoyment of life, in all its aspects?
-------------------
I like my collection, and that of a few friends.
