#Warrior Quotes

“I don't Twitter. I can't even remember my password name. I have problems with electronics, so what I've done is hire a young man out of college, whose very fingers are the extension of computer keys, and he Twitters.

“The longer I live, the more my mind dwells upon the beauty and the wonder of the world.”
