Luck consists largely of hanging on by your fingernails until things start to go your way.

Yes, there are pictures that demonstrate the impossibility of her factual allegations. During her dance, however long it lasted, she had some fingernails that were painted and on some fingers, and then there were other fingers that had no fingernails on them at all.

Robert Ekstrand

Manliness consists not in bluff, bravado or lordliness. It consists in daring to do the right and facing consequences whether it is in matters social, political or other. It consists in deeds, not in words.
