Live Standing Still

Death comes for everyone. I’m not afraid of dying, but I am afraid of dying here. I’d rather die on an adventure than live standing still.

V.E. Schwab in “A Darker Shade of Magic”

For some, the fear of predictability and boredom is stronger than the fear of adventure and bodily harm. Some would rather truly enjoy the rush of a short but action packed life than live a long and routine life.
