&quot;Now, the world can be an unfair place at times<br /> But your lows will have their complement of highs<br /> And if anyone should cheat you, take advantage of, or beat you<br /> Raise your head and wear your wounds with pride.&quot;<br /> -Yeasayer<br /> <br /> &quot;Me? I can change during the course of a day. When I wake I&#039;m one person, when I go to sleep I know for certain I&#039;m somebody else. I don&#039;t know who I am most of the time. It&#039;s like you got yesterday, today and tomorrow all in the same room. There&#039;s no telling what can happen.&quot;<br /> -Bob Dylan
