On the plains of hesitation lie the blackened bones of countless millions who at the dawn of victory lay down to rest, and in resting died.
"no no, you got the wrong number, this is 91..2." - Chief Wiggum of the Simpsons. I say so many quotes to my kids, and have started tracking down epsiodes to show them and they love them. Not really my favorite quote, but I like to laugh.

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!” I first encountered this quote on the back of a cafe's business card in Davis, CA and I've kept that card for the past 10+ years. As someone who used to get lost in chasing external validation, this quote helps ground me in what really matters. The bit about knowing even one life as has breathed easier because I have lived resonates with me most. My other favorite quote is YOLO because I can't argue with that.

It's about enjoying the good times while they're here, and knowing they wont last. And when the bad times come, we know that they wont last either.

Questions you cannot answer are usually far better for you than answers you cannot question.
