"My sense of my importance to the world is relatively small.
On the other hand, my sense of my own importance to myself is tremendous."

I used to drink coffee every single night right up until i had to go to bed, just so I could dream faster.

“If I sound biased, that’s because I am. Biased toward the actual record, not the spin; biased toward a president who has conducted himself with grace and calm under incredible pressure, who has had to manage crises not seen since the Second World War and the Depression, and who as yet has not had a single significant scandal to his name. “To see what is in front of one’s nose needs a constant struggle,” George Orwell once wrote. What I see in front of my nose is a president whose character, record, and promise remain as grotesquely underappreciated now as they were absurdly hyped in 2008. And I feel confident that sooner rather than later, the American people will come to see his first term from the same calm, sane perspective. And decide to finish what they started.”

Crashing The Inaugural
Fala disliked being separated from FDR. When the presidential entourage was preparing to leave for Roosevelt’s third inauguration, Fala hopped into the car beside his master. The president attempted to shoo him out of the car, but Fala just snuggled closer to him on the seat. Roosevelt laughed and said to one of the Secret Service guards, “Would you kindly check the credentials of this individual. If he does not have an invitation to be on the inaugural platform, please have him removed.” A guard gently lifted the black dog out of the car and carried him back inside. — Why We Love the Dogs We Do, by Stanley Coren
