Paul Neilan
“And when they start talking, and they always do, you find that each of them has a story they want to tell. Everyone, no matter how old or young, has some lesson they want to teach. And I sit there and listen and learn all about life from people who have no idea how to live it.”
Paul Neilan, Apathy and Other Small Victories

Judy Garland
“Always be a first rate version of yourself and not a second rate version of someone else.”
Judy Garland
