One Day As A Lion is the name and site of the creative collobaration between Zack de la Rocha (Rage Against The Machine) and drummer Jon Theodore. The name One Day As A Lion comes from the infamous 1970 black&white photo by photographer George Rodriguez. That reads “it’s better to live one day as a lion than a thousand years as a lamb” The words in the photo also inspired me to write the lyrics for Fluid’s song When Knowledge Speaks Wisdom Listen’s.
