This fits so well with the fic I'm working on right now. :D Although, it fits someone else I know rather well, too.

It's Zayne's life motto, I think. And yes, Murph definitely falls into this category as well. <3

Travis is also a writer and that ought to explain it all. :D

a little excerpt from today's NaNo effort:

Vance sighed, gathered the bowls and spoons and container and tucked them back into the bag. The Unders were much nearer now, approaching with their typical cautiousness. Remembering something his father had once told him after Vance, as a young boy, had pushed a length of wire into electrical generator the man had fashioned despite numerous warnings against such an act. When the jolt had thrown the boy across the rooftop shed where the generator was housed, his father, rather than scold Vance, had said only, “its human nature to think wisely and act foolishly.”
How many times had Vance thought better of an action only to do it anyhow?
He knew he was about to do it now.
