quotes

Edward Abbey, Desert Solitaire - Do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am, a reluctant enthusiast, a part time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic.

So go out

J.D. Salinger - She wasn't doing a thing that i could see, except standing there leaning on the balcony railing, holding the universe together.
