I'm not a master. i'm a student-master, meaning that i have the knowledge of a master and the expertise of a master, but i'm still learning. so i'm a student-master. i don't believe in the word 'master.' i consider the master as such when they close the casket.

I am no fun at all. in fact, i am anti-fun. not as in anti-violence, but as in anti-matter. i am not so much against fun - although i suppose i kind of am - as i am the opposite of fun. i suck the fun out of a room. or perhaps i'm just a different kind of fun; the kind that leaves on bereft of hope; the kind of fun that ends in tears.

Not every legend is a myth, some are flesh and blood. some legends walk among us, but they aren’t born, they’re built. legends are made from iron & sweat, mind and muscle, blood and vision and victory. legends are champions, they grow, they win, they conquer. there’s a legend behind every legacy, there’s a blueprint behind every legend.
