About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Leaving the world a better place (than I found it)

ABOUT ME

A friends friend, writer and translator, restless and rooted at the same time.

PHILOSOPHY

Of course size matters - la petit morte is always prefereble compared with la grand (et final) morte.

***

It is always to late to have a bad childhood and never to early to start having a good one... (the same, of course, goes for relationships...)

***

To live is not that bad, compared with to not.

***

We all belong to a happy minority - the livig one. Most people are already dead if not just still unborn.

***

To say there are not any differences between the sexes, is as stupid as saying there are.
