I mean, I hate to be mean.But I see these hags, these ugly, ugly women come in to work. And they have beards and warts, and like five kids. And I ask myself, "Who's fucking these women?"

[creativejuices]

"To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
