Man is cast into an unsympathetic world in which he tries to achieve purposes all of which will inevitably come to nought in death. He may come to evade the thought of his own coming dissolution by living his life in terms of impersonal and conventional generalities, but he can be true to himself only by living constantly with the thought of his own eventual death… Man is inevitably given over to care and subject to a fate to which he can close his eyes, but which he cannot escape.

- James Dean (Feb. 8, 1931 - Sept. 30, 1955)
