Courage can not exist in the absence of fear.

When you have a choice between quantity or quality, always choose quality; except when it comes to money. RJ Intindola – (Gandolfo) – 1977

Every human being on earth has two things in common. Death and a broken heart.

The best teachers and professors I have known were named; Mistake, Fail, Blunder and then, Bloom; and the best of all, we called, Perseverance.

You burn with the flames of desire for someone that doesn’t notice or pay attention. Your love affair has not even begun and the flames are now burning into your soul. You can douse the flames; you must first walk away. Only then can you be transformed.(from the poem, Douse the Flames)
