Addicted to News of Becks, Favre, Ugh
Random person on ESPN message board
"Who cares what becks does now; he is just another washed up athlete the corporations use to sale their garbage to the people, and the media feeds it to us. Every sport has these types of players, it makes me sick to care."
In response to the potential loaning of 34 year old soccer icon David Beckham from LA Galaxy to AC Milan.

Hard For Life To Live Up To The Dream
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby (1928)
"There must have been moments even that afternoon when Daisy tumbled short of his dreams – not through her own fault, but because of the colossal vitality of his illusion. It had gone beyond her, beyond everything. He had thrown himself into it with a creative passion, adding to it all the time, decking it out with every bright feather drifted his way. No amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart."

For An Ape, Born Twice is Redundant
Tom Robbins, Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas
"Animals – perhaps most especially intelligent animals – do not share man’s pathetic need to socialize bliss, codify awe, pigeonhole the Mystery, and tame the Divine. For an ape, born twice is completely redundant, since an ape gets it right the first time."

Am I Am Who I Say I Am, Or Who I Am?
Nathaniel Hawthorne
"No man for any considerable period can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true."

Jacking Up Your Appetite
"Say what you like about the misery of hard labor – but it can jack up your appetite to the point where eating takes on a kind of holiness."
