I'm sorry if I ever hurt you You know I'd never mean too Life throws me off my feet And I tried to get up To fall again But I still know The world isn't going...

Courage comes in all sizes, but fits only a few.<br /> What is wise is not always right and what is right is not always wise.<br /> Knowing what is wrong and right is not choosing which to fight.<br /> -All of these are by me

Favorite Quote:
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
