Life is an honor, albeit anonymously delivered.

Some people hear their own inner voices with great clearness and they live by what they hear. Such people become crazy, or they become legends.

My advice is, do not try to inhabit another's soul. You have your own.

Success and money can really be quite blinding.

I'm actually forced to write about Michigan because as a native of that state it's the place I know best.
