The final page features an extract from Jack London's short story "To Build a Fire," published in 1908. This story describes a man's struggle for survival in the extreme cold of the Yukon Territory.
Quote: "It was his last moment of fear. When he had recovered his breath and his control, he sat and thought about meeting death with dignity."
