The measure of a country's greatness is its ability to retain compassion in times of crisis         ~~~~~~~~~Thurgood Marshall

The worst loneliness is not to be comfortable with yourself.    ~~~~~~~~~ Mark Twain

It was the last short story in the book
the one with the most powerful hook


Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

while being "in your face"

But certainly worth the look.
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection
