For Madmen Only

“He who would do some great thing in this short life must apply himself to work with such a concentration of his forces as, to idle spectators, who live only to amuse themselves, looks like insanity.”—Parkman 


Lest I be misunderstood, just because I'm against drugs and wrapping yourself in material that lies about your true strength does not mean that I endorse a passive and mediocre path.  I've crossed an ocean more than once completely resolved to be shipped home in a pine box before a stone I'd come to lift remained landlocked.

It's not maniacal methods that irk me.  It's cheating that makes me mad.
