“In our lives, every one of us draws a circle. Inside it are your people. The people you fight for, the ones you protect, no matter what. As you get older your circle gets smaller and smaller. People grow up, or they don’t. They fall by the wayside or just drift off, one day at a time. But those who stay through thick and thin, and everything in between, they’re the ones you want in the foxhole when the walls come tumbling down.”
Mary Shannon

“The thorns he spares when the rose is taken;/ The rocks are left when he wastes the plain./ The wind that wanders, the weeds wind-shaken,/ These remain.”
Algernon Charles Swinburne
“To complain is not to explain. To explain is to be plain; not pretentious and unaffected.”
Ephrem Daniel
“They came out swinging from the get-go. I didn't execute my pitches, plain and simple. I didn't have it today. I tried to battle.”
Aaron Harang
