Man cannot remake himself without suffering, for he is both the marble and the sculptor.
I taught my son to like truth, above all else: to not like a lie, to not be afraid to stand up and be responsible when he was wrong. I taught him that it was okay to be wrong, and it was better yet to say “I am wrong” […] and I taught him that, every time a person […] does an act that’s not truthful, that person is destroying forever a part of their integrity. And the integrity of a human being should be protected at all costs.

Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don't you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can't think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you're supposed to read? Do you think every thing you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned.
if you are not scared, then you are not taking a chance. If you are not taking a chance, then what the hell are you doing?
Stop sitting back saying “Yeah that would be cool, I wanna be this, I wanna be that”. Grab your fucking nuts and be it!
I was thinkin' to myself, this could be heaven or this could be hell.
