Quote of the Day

Tools    





I am half agony, half hope.
The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

~Bob Moawad

A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather, and ask for it back when it begins to rain.

Don't ever take a fence down, until you know why it was put up.

The best way out, is always through.

I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

The People's Republic of Clogher
I've just been reading an interview with former Great White Hope turned HIV-infected (which he disputes) boxing pariah Tommy Morrison.

When asked if he maybe learned his lessons too late (the guy is, to but it mildly, a troubled soul) he replied:

“Isn’t that the only time you ever learn them?”

True enough.
