“Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing.” - August Wilson Do you know your value? Do you fear that you're never going to find someone who loves you because you're too much trouble, too difficult, too fussy, too depressed, too outspoken, too weird, too whatever?

"All good is hard. All evil is easy. Dying, losing, cheating, and mediocrity is easy. Stay away from easy." - Scott Alexander There is a misconception that men cheat for sex.

"Be straight up with me, either you want to be a f***ing lawyer or you don't." - Naomie Olindo Do you think television is a representation of real life?

"Today is Valentine's Day - or, as men like to call it, Extortion Day!" - Jay Leno Why do we even have a Valentine’s Day holiday? Back in the day the Roman church decided that soldiers were more effective when they were unmarried so Claudius II banned marriages. Supposedly there was a Priest named Valentin/Valentinus who decided this was a stupid idea and decided to secretly marry young men and women behind the Emperor's back. [...]
"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." - Franklin D. Roosevelt Yes, that's me on top of that cliff along with my fellow adventure seekers. I'm third from the right (obviously not going anywhere NEAR the edge!) That's The Mountain-the mountain they named "The Death Road" in Bolivia, so named because of its inherent danger and yearly death toll.
