Tsk tsk Silver Cheetah. Most uncalled for... Time for Sharp to hit you all with the serious stick.

The quote in my sig is from a longer passage by Nelson Mandela which I'm not about to type up as it's rather lengthy. However, I do believe it has more then a ring of truth to it.

As for something that defines my essense, I'd refer you to this:

Quote:

‘If each, I told myself, could be but housed in separate identities, life would be relieved of all that was unbearable; the unjust might go his way, delivered from the aspirations and remorse of his more upright twin; and the just could walk steadfastly and securely on his upward path, doing the good things in which he found his pleasure, and no longer exposed to disgrace and penitence by the hands of this extraneous evil. It was the curse of mankind that these incongruous faggots were thus bound together – that in the agonised womb of consciousness these polar twins should be continually struggling.’


Robert Louis Stevenson (1886)

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure."
