That's how serious we were about our vow.
- Raymond Joseph Teller, Fury Letter written to Brian Brushwood, 10-18-93
- Get on stage. A lot. Try stuff. Make your best stab and keep stabbing. If it's there in your heart, it will eventually find its way out. Or you will give up and have a prudent, contented life doing something else.
