These clichés are at best vague, at worst stupid. They imply that you should do something wild with your life because your life is precious, a little like saying you should go swimming with your grandfather’s watch because it is irreplaceable.

Grayling considers the three most pressing challenges facing the world: climate change, technology, and justice.
