"When in fear, it is safest to force the attack."

-- Seneca the Elder

“My brother and I, we were both relatively good-looking guys growing up, but we had our awkward stages, where we were just hard to look at.”
“Age simply doesn't enter into it! The older the friend, the more he is valued, particularly when he shows so visibly the characteristics that we all look for in friends. You have only to look at a genuine teddy's face to see at once the loyalty, common sense, and above all, dependability behind it.”

“There are people who are always going to try to engage in activity that is illegal and they're going to try to subvert surveillance. But everybody should not give up their liberties and rights to privacy because some people are going to [do that]. We shouldn't stop or limit our basic liberties because some people are going to engage in criminal activities.”
“O God, protect me from my friends, that they have not power over me. Thou hast giv'n me power to protect myself from thy bitterest enemies.”
“The secret of reaping the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment from life is to live dangerously.”
“Only wear clothes that make you feel alive.”
“Anybody who has a career is going to have to deal with a rumor in their time, or something that usually isn't true. I have a great team behind me and a family that supports me. I just care too much about my career. I have been working too long to let it slip away for something stupid.”
“Do the thing and the power will come.”
