When pride kills you.

Jack Palance: "Do you know what the secret of life is? One thing. Just one thing.
You stick to that and everything else don't mean shit."
Billy Crystal: "Yeah, but what's that one thing?"
Jack Palance: "That's what you've got to figure out."
~From the movie City Slickers

It is better to emit a scream in the shape of a theory
than to be entirely insensible to the jars
and incongruities of life
and take everything as it comes in a forlorn stupidity.
~Robert Louis Stevenson, "Crabbed Age and Youth," Virginibus Puerisque, 1881

The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be. ~Socrates

and....It killed me.....truly..
but i don't even care..
