Soon we'll be sliding down the razor blade of life.

Hearts full of youth,
Hearts full of truth,
Six parts gin to one part vermouth.

But soon or late the man who wins is the one who thinks he can.

but if you keep tilting at windmills -
madly trying the same thing again and again,
your life also won't work.
