Quotes

Okay, so, now that a ridiculous amount of time has passed since my last blog, it's only right that I should post another.  Unfortunately, it won't be as cathartic for me as I am too tired to write any creative or original thoughts (though I honestly doubt there even exists such a thing as creative or original thought) and will be merely recording favorite quotes so I can erase them from my phone.  :)
