    You know those girls who get drunk and the next day there like
    "I can't believe I f*cked that guy"
    just Imagine.....we could be that mistake!

    I make mistakes. That's what I do. I speak without thinking, I act without knowing. I drink so much that I can barely walk...I'm a fantastic lover though, and an amazing friend. God knows I mean well. - Sex and the City

    "I am not perfect. I live on the planet Earth where humans live. Humans aren't perfect. Never have been. Never will be. So I don't always wear the right clothes. And I don't always use the right shoes. My memory sometimes fails me. I don't look like a fashion model. I don't cook like a French chef. I don't always do what people expect of me. I am human. I am imperfect. But there is no one else like me in this whole wide world. I am unique. I am a miracle". Anon

    My work is finished now: no wrath of Jove
    nor sword nor fire nor futurity
    is capable of laying waste to it.
    Let the day come then, when it wishes to,
    which only has my body in its power,
    and put an end to my uncertain years;
    no matter, for in spirit I will be
    borne up to soar beyond the distant stars,
    immortal in the name I leave behind;
    wherever Roman governance extends
    over the subject nations of the world,
    my words will be upon the people's lips,
    and if there is truth in poets' prophesies,
    then in my fame forever I will live.


    Ovid, The Metamorphoses, as translated by Charles Martin

    "None of us got where we are solely by pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps. We got here because somebody - a parent, a teacher, an Ivy League crony or a few nuns bent down and helped us pick up our boots.” : Thurgood Marshal

    “The Autumn Wind is a pirate,
    blustering in from sea,
    with a rollicking song he sweeps along, swaggering boisterously.
    The Autumn Wind is a Raider, pillaging just for fun,
    he'll knock you 'round and upside down,
    and laugh when he's conquered and won.”

    - John Facenda former NFL Films narrator (1913-1984)
