I have lost friends, some by death ... others by sheer inability to cross the street. I am always looking for meaningful one-night stands. God grant us patience! We can pay our debt to the past by putting the future in debt to ourselves. One man with courage makes a majority. God helps the brave. Birth, copulation and death. That's all the facts when you come to brass tacks. The reward of the general is not a bigger tent, but command. Man is only a reed, the weakest thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed. Ownership is to fear (tener es temer) Criticism ... makes very little dent upon me, unless I think there is some real justification and something should be done. To have character is to be big enough to take life on. Most powerful is he who has himself in his own power. That man who lives for self alone Lives for the meanest mortal known. Tell me whom you frequent, and I will tell you who you are. A gentleman is man who can disagree without being disagreeable. He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. Taste is the enemy of creativeness. The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart. Decisions determine destiny.
