Boys, there ain't no free lunches in this country. And don't go spending your whole life commiserating that you got the raw deals. You've got to say, I think that if I keep working at this and want it bad enough I can have it. It's called perseverance.

Jon Porter

Experience seems to most of us to lead to conclusions, but empiricism has sworn never to draw them.

George Santayana
