Decision is a sharp knife that cuts or to do anything, never to turn back or to stop until the thing intended was clean and straight; indecision, a dull one that hacks and tears and leaves ragged edges behind it.

I used to skip out of high school and go flying. It was just one of those things, I thought it was kind of a cool thing to do.
