I am sorry," I whispered. "I am sorry for all of the ways that I failed you. I am sorry that I was not there to save you, or to die alongside you.

I forgive you your anger, and your grief. Let this be an end to it.

I swallowed hard. โI wonโt.โ Something changed right then, but I didnโt know what.

Lance ArmstrongThe motto stated a lie. If this nation has ever trusted in God, that time has gone by; for nearly half a century almost its entire trust has been in the Republican party and the dollar--mainly the dollar.

And if you didnโt leave, I donโt know what to say. Except Iโm sorry that I did. I donโt know what your response will be at getting this letter, like a ghost from your past. But no matter what happened, I hope youโre okay.

Dane CookThe worst of this sorry bunch of semi-educated losers are those who seem to glory in being irritated by nouns becoming verbs. How dense and deaf to language development do you have to be?

He TABLED the motion and CHAIRED the meeting in which nouns were made verbs

Lance ArmstrongEssentially, if our secrets are secrets because we are told to be ashamed, then we must share them. There is no shame in being sad or struggling or trying to heal. We are all desperate, depraved and sacred. We are all terrible and brillIant. I can list all the things that can make a girl want to escape her own body (re: patriarchy). But Iโd rather list all the things that make me want to stay in my body, and adorn it like a home, rub oils into my skin, tell it how sorry I am for trying to leave, for trying to hurt it into submission
