“I saw myself in the mirror as a grizzled veteran of many wars, untold violence, a respectable eight or nine jails all over the world. I had ridden the wild beast of Passion through so many jungles and nightmares and devastating personal diasters… My heart was strong, but my body was scarred and broken and warped from a lifetime of dangerous confrontations…. I was old beyond my years as they say, and I developed a curious habit of survival. It was the only way I knew, and I was getting pretty good at it, on the evidence…”-Kingdom of Fear – Hunter S. Thompson
