Re: Quotes
I never did give anybody hell. I just told the truth, and they thought it was hell.

Who honors those we love with the very life we live?
Who sends monsters to kill us, and at the same time sings that we'll never die?
Who teaches us what's real, and how to laugh at lies?
Who decides why we live, and what we'll die to defend?
Who chains us, and who holds the key to set us free?
It's you. You have all the weapons you need.
Now fight!

Re: Quotes
"I remember reading these books as a kid, you know, there were four rabbits: Mopsy, Flopsy, Cottontail, and Peter, and I was just thinking, "If you're gonna name your rabbit Mopsy, you're really gonna name the second one Flopsy? You want everyone to hate you?" Peter's the only one who made it out okay in the naming process. He's like, an investment banker now, he's like, "I do not know these other rabbits." And they're like, "Aren't you Peter Rabbit?" He's like, "No, I'm Peter Lippins!" And he's tucking his ears into a baseball cap... Anyway, while I was thinking about all of that, the other kids read the book." - Mike Birbiglia

Cause when I look down, I just miss all the good stuff.
And when I look up, I just trip over things. - Ani Difranco
Trying is the first step towards failure. - Homer Simpson
