I'd like to share some quotes that I hold near and dear to my heart, in the hopes that they are as helpful to anyone reading my profile as they've been to me:
Life is hard; it's harder if you're stupid. --John Wayne.
The secret to life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made. --Groucho Marx
A thorn defends the rose, harming only those who would steal the blossom. --Chinese Proverb
          INVICTUS
by William Ernest Henley
Out of the night that covers me,
      Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
      For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
      I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
      My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
      Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
      Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
      How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
      I am the captain of my soul.
