The Tree: An Anniversary
It was exactly a year ago.

I'm falling out of love, day by day, with the...
On second thought, I never really fell in love with the ones who think their reams of printed paper, exorbitant numbers in their bankbooks, and round pieces of shiny metal can buy the world.
I’m not speaking to each and every member of the alta sociedad. Don’t get me wrong. I have good friends who never slapped money on other people’s faces.

One of the best dialogues to date.
TONY STARK: No offense, but I don't play well with others.

One of my role models is Bob Dylan. As I grew up, I learned the lyrics to all his songs and watched him never stand still. If you look at the artists, if they get really good, it always occurs to them at some point that they can do this one thing for the rest of their lives, and they can be really successful to the outside world but not really be successful to themselves.

Family, move on.
I can’t believe you guys are still associating me to individuals that I have long disassociated myself with. When I burn bridges, I make sure they turn into ashes.
Stop. Thank you.
I find social network profile display pictures of some rather amusing and strange. There’s quite the entertainment value to it, I must say.
