Man that emphasizes how the years have gone by and that I am getting old.


Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

It's amazing how fast Lunney was able to pinpoint the exact source of the problem, a brilliant man indeed. smile

Always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.
