Current cool quote: "You can't tell me it's not worth fighting for. You can't tell me it's not worth dying for."



"I Won't Back Down"
Johnny Cash

Well I won't back down, no I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of Hell
But I won't back down

Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground and I won't back down

Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground and I won't back down

Well I know what's right, I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
But I stand my ground and I won't back down

Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground and I won't back down
No I won't back down.





"Death is not the worst that can happen to man." -Plato


"It's like making yourself do it anyway, even when you can't." -John Walsh





"Wouldn't it be better to stay peacefully in your house and not wander around the world searching for bread made from something better than wheat, never stopping to think that many people go looking for wool and come back shorn?"
"Ah my dear niece," replied Don Quixote, "How little you understand."




"Aldonza: Why do you do these things?
Don Quixote: What things?
Aldonza: These ridiculous... the things you do!
Don Quixote: I hope to add some measure of grace to the world.
Aldonza: The world's a dung heap and we are maggots that crawl on it!
Don Quixote: My Lady knows better in her heart.
Aldonza: What's in my heart will get me halfway to Hell. And you, Señor Don Quixote- you're going to take such a beating!
Don Quixote: Whether I win or lose does not matter.
Aldonza: What does?
Don Quixote: Only that I follow the quest.
Aldonza: *spitting* That for your quest! *pause* What does that mean... 'Quest?'
Don Quixote: It is the mission of each knight errant. His duty... nay, his privilege! *singing*...

To dream the impossible dream.
To fight the unbeatable foe.
To bear with unbearable sorrow.
To run where the brave dare not go.

To right the unrightable wrong.
To love, pure and chaste, from afar.
To try when your arms are too weary.
To reach the unreachable star.

This is my quest, to follow that star.
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far.
To fight for what's right
without question or pause.
To be willing to march into Hell
for a Heavenly cause.

And I know, if I'll only be true
to this glorious quest,
that my heart will lie peaceful and calm
when I'm laid to my rest.

And the world will be better for this;
that one man, scorned and covered with scars,
still strove, with his last ounce of courage,
to reach the unreachable stars."


Or if you want to hear one of the million people singing it...
