I am not a person who can really sit around and think about regrets because with every bad experience that you have, there is weirdly something good that comes from it.
I want to say a very sincere thank you for this welcome home - it is a wonderful welcome home. It is the place to where I return and where I will always return because it is of Galway that I am.
But I look at failure as education. In that respect, I am so well-educated.
I am often struck by the anxious inferiority many well-educated British people display towards the U.S., particularly Londoners dazzled by New York, when many postcolonials are accustomed to regarding Britain's old imperial cosmopolis as the true capital of the western world.
I go through phases of watching a ton of dance/performance, and I am bizarrely well-informed on the subject.
I am not the kind of designer who is racing to the finish line, so while collaborations are important for our growth, each and every one has to be strategic and well-timed with what we have going on internally.
I've got a general callout with the Caribbean world in which I'm interested in helping in any way to get their well-written good stories out to the rest of the world. I am really interested in helping those stories get to a completion and public viewing.
I am often reminded that the wellspring of Vermont liberty flows from Main Street, not State Street.
While I drew, and wept along with the terrified children I was drawing, I really felt the burden I am bearing. I felt that I have no right to withdraw from the responsibility of being an advocate.
I am a West Point graduate and an Army veteran.
I'm still very much a West Virginia boy. I haven't forgotten my roots, because that's really who I am.
I am a Westerner of Westerners!
I am into nature and seeing whales. I went whale-watching, and I was really looking forward to that, but when you see it on TV and you see other programs do it, you're seeing close-ups of these massive creatures, and the music that's added gives you a certain feeling.
I only have one idea, that is WhatsApp, and I am going to continue to focus on that. I have no plans to build any other ideas.
I am God's wheat, and I shall be ground by the teeth of beasts, that I may become the pure bread of Christ.
I'm a full-time wheelchair user. And yet, given the right circumstances, I am able to work.
Why should I ask the wise men: Whence is my beginning? I am busy with the thought: Where will be my end?
Good Christian people, I am come hither to die, for according to the law, and by the law I am judged to die, and therefore I will speak nothing against it. I am come hither to accuse no man, nor to speak anything of that, whereof I am accused and condemned to die.
I am two fools, I know, for loving, and for saying so in whining poetry.
When I tell people I'm a space scientist studying asteroids, they sometimes assume I'm a super-smart math whiz. The kind of person who skipped a bunch of grades and went to college when they were sixteen. Although I am good at math, school was difficult for me, and I didn't get straight A's.
