Life is an occasion...rise to it.

I mean, I don't think I'm alone when I look at the homeless person or the bum or the psychotic or the drunk or the drug addict or the criminal and see their baby pictures in my mind's eye. You don't think they were cute like every other baby?

God knows I've done enough crap in my life to grow a few flowers.

A good review from the critics is just another stay of execution.
