Search TWH:

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.

T. E. Lawrence

As with most of my book reviews, I am not actually reviewing this book, at least in the traditional sense. Rather, I am delivering my own thoughts. If you don’t like that, well, you’re in the wrong place.

Charles Haywood

I’m not in the apologies business. I’m in the winning business.
