striving to stay alive
Nicole Laplante 1977 (manchester nh)
As I see life intelligence without ambition is like having a bird with no wings and it makes the art of living feel like wrestling rather than dancing that's why it's better to be boldly decisive and risk being wrong than to agonize at the length and be right to late, I guess you can say perpetual optimism will always be a force multiplier in my life that's why in the midst of great joy never promise anything to quickly an in the midst of great anger never reply to quickly for iron rusts from disuse even so does inaction spoil the intellect while intelligent people simplify complex problems while a fool would rather complicate things
