“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.” ~Theodore Roosevelt. (Wow!)

“A brilliant idea is like a baby in a mothers womb. You need to bring it out in the world, nurture it, feed it, grow it, till it becomes big enough to take care of itself. If you leave it at the stage of an idea itself, it is as good as non existent.” -Manoj Arora, From the Rat Race to Financial Freedom

Do battles (which we know nothing about and) which you are fighting 'off screen', as it were, go some way towards explaining your persona/behaviour on these forums? You offered the quotation; do you have any personal insights into it?

Does me posting a "snooze" smilie because you are being a forum bore, constitute being "unkind" within the context of your platitudinous quotation?

Why can't you answer the simple question. Are you telling me I'm being unkind by posting a "snooze" smilie?

Why? Because healthy adult males do not require the same spoon feeding parents provide their small children; nor do they persist in asking repetitive questions driven by their own emotional needs. No adult male ever does another adult male any favors by indulging his childish behaviors. That's why.

OK you lack the courage to be forthright and tell me exactly what you think to my "face" so to speak and prefer (as usual) to hide behind quotations. It's fine. 🙂

GB frequently posts replies to me and signs his them "Vivian". I'm not sure if Vivian is a figment of GB's imagination, a fragment of his personality or a creepy metaphor for a repressed transgendered psychosis.
