Dmitry PisarevI earned that the strong will always beat the weak, but the smart will beat the strong. Boxing is a tough guy sport.

A masochist derives pleasure from being hurt; so denying the masochist his pleasure through-pain hurts him just as much as actual physical pain hurts the non masochist.

If a person wants to be hurt and enjoys suffering, then there is no reason not to indulge him in his wont.

Brent MetcalfDemocrats are just as divided as Republicans these days. Embarrassed by their election losses, they are fighting over everything from their diagnosis of why Trump beat them in 2016 to how much to stake themselves on an oust-him-at-all-costs strategy now.

I move on with my day without skipping a beat-and definitely without missing a meal.

It's not going to affect me any way, shape or fashion.
