You thought you knew what pain was. You thought that whatever happened, you could handle it. You thought that you were in control. You thought wrong. Now you've lost it all. She's gone. All that's left is the numbing pain. You have to let go to stop the pain, but you can't. It's like a drug to you now. You don't want to need it, but it has become a part of you, and it won't loosen its grip on you. The control you once fought for, is gone. You have no control. And you just don't care. Sanjay Singh

You can learn music, I can learn flying. And that's only the beginning. I think it would go on for us as long as we live. Richard Bach, spoken by Leslie Parrish, The Bridge Across Forever

Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. Albert Einstein


Ninjas aren't dangerous. They're more afraid of you than you are of them...
