Life, Mountains, Broken, Deep, Sweet

Funny, Myself, Welcome, Action, Hurt

Law, Reality, Weird, Heroes, Escape

You don't argue with a four-year old about why he shouldn't eat candy for dinner. You don't punch a mentally handicapped guy even if he punches you first. And you don't argue when a women tells you she's only making 80 cents to your dollar. It's the path of least resistance. You save your energy for more important battles. Scott Adams

Women, Path, Dinner, Energy, Candy, You

Spare a thought for the poor introverts among us. In a world of party animals and glad-handers, they're the ones who stand by the punch bowl.

Cooking, Fat, Down, Fresh, Up, Herbs

When I learn martial arts, my master will have me try a punch for a week and he will keep saying, 'No, you don't have it. No, that's not right.' When he finally says, 'Yes, you did it,' it's a wonderful moment. You worked on it. You got it. Milla Jovovich

Moment, Saying, Me, Week, Learn, You

School, Happy, Walk, Me, High School
