I lived with my mom in a really small apartment. My bedroom was like in the living room. That's why I still love to sleep on couches now.
When I was 5 some financial things happened and I moved seven times in a year. We moved from apartment to apartment sometimes living with friends. My mom would always say 'Don't get comfortable because we may not be here long.'
My mother told me on several different occasions that she was livin' her dream vicariously through me. She once said that I was getting' to do all the things that she would have wanted to have done.
That strong mother doesn't tell her cub Son stay weak so the wolves can get you. She says Toughen up this is reality we are living in.
I have known war as few men now living know it. It's very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a means of settling international disputes.
No longer shall I paint interiors with men reading and women knitting. I will paint living people who breathe and feel and suffer and love.
The highest prize in a world of men is the most beautiful woman available on your arm and living there in her heart loyal to you.
I know war as few other men now living know it and nothing to me is more revolting. I have long advocated its complete abolition as its very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a method of settling international disputes.
Dear Lord we beg but one boon more: Peace in the hearts of all men living peace in the whole world this Thanksgiving.
You will find men who want to be carried on the shoulders of others who think that the world owes them a living. They don't seem to see that we must all lift together and pull together.
