&quot;I Rather draw than paint, But I rather express than nothing at all&quot;- Mario,&ldquo;Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain&#039;t all sunshine and rainbows.

How much you can take and keep moving forward. That&#039;s how winning is done!&rdquo; <br /> ― Sylvester Stallone, Rocky Balboa
