That's why when major badasses greet each other in movies they don't say anything they just nod. The nod means 'I am a badass and I recognize that you too are a badass ' but they don't say anything because they're Wolverine and Magneto and it would mess up their vibe to explain.

Neil Gaiman
All that I am or hope to be I owe to my angel mother. I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.

I can't sing but I can understand wanting to keep a balance, trying to pursue dreams, while creating a stable environment for my children.
Gabrielle Reece
I don't believe in the kind of magic in my books. But I do believe something very magical can happen when you read a good book.
