Mike Tyson
"When I come out I have supreme confidence. But I'm scared to death. I'm afraid. I'm afraid of everything. I'm afraid of losing. I'm afraid of being humiliated. But I'm confident. The closer I get to the ring the more confident I get. The closer, the more confident. All during training I've been afraid of this man. I think this man might be capable of beating me. I've dreamed of him beating me. For that I've always stayed afraid of him. The closer I get to the ring the more confident I get. Once I'm in the ring I'm a god. No one could beat me. I walk around the ring but I never take my eyes off my opponent....During the fight I'm supremely confident. I'm making him miss and I'm countering. I'm hitting him to the body; I'm punching him real hard. And I'm punching him, and I'm punching him, and I know he's gonna take my punches. He goes down, he's out. I'm victorious. Mike Tyson, greatest fighter that ever lived."

Charlie Brown
“Are you upset little friend? Have you been lying awake worrying? Well, don't worry...I'm here. The flood waters will recede, the famine will end, the sun will shine tomorrow, and I will always be here to take care of you." - Charlie Brown to Snoopy
Benjamin
On of my favorites movies last year and now of all time is THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON. I don't know why, but after watching the movie for the second time this past weekend I was even more touched by it then my first viewing. The film caused me to think of my own mortality and what sort of life I was leading. It is such a simple story but it reinforces my belief that everyone has a unique tale and there is no true path to life, we have to forge our own way. I hope you can spare three hours of your life to enjoy this entertaining story of a man and appreciate the power he and we all have to live a life that were can be proud of.
