Do you live your life? One day as a Lion or one hundred as a sheep?

    'It is better to live one day like a lion than one hundred as a sheep'

    So AH, what say you? Is the quote above inspirational or totally irrelevant?

    I would like to think that I make the most of every day and live life the way I want but soon I will probably have to conform, get a proper job and start being sensible - live like the sheep.

    So, do you live your life? Are you the lion or the sheep? Perhaps the Atari Jaguar?

    Maybe the quote is just silly!

    nothing wrong living 100 days grazing away relaxing, while the lions get hunted and caged into extinction! thats the problem with being a lion, you face scary competition...that said, lion all the way!

    Getting a "proper" job doesn't mean turning into a sheep. Nor does spending all day playing play station and **** make one a lion.

    maybe its a weird coincidence, but do you read Chad Howse's stuff? He just wrote an article based on that quote, and judging by your username it seems to fit.

    Hi burrenguy,

    Nah that's just an odd coincidence! Actually read it while studying Benito Mussolini! Interesting idea all the same!

    huh. Well as a matter of interest, here's the article I mentioned.. This guy is fairly OTT. The "live like a real man" thing is very overplayed.

    Like the omega wolf, the runt of the pack having been hunted out into the wilderness, was found starving and wretched by a lakota warrior who named me thunder dog and taught me the ways of the warrior. I roam the prairie alone feeding on what I can find and call only to those who's medicine gives me strength, Aho
