Between two worlds life hovers like a star, twixt night and morn, upon the horizon's verge. 
Man, being reasonable, must get drunk; the best of life is but intoxication. 
Fools are my theme, let satire be my song. 
Winners are different. They're a different breed of cat. 
One way to break up any kind of tension is good deep breathing.
