Gregory Walter Graffin Quotes
There are certain ways you have to delude yourself. Self-delusion is important, for instance in family life. You know what I mean?

And with your kids, you have to believe that you're doing something that has higher purpose; even though you don't have any evidence that that's the way it's going to turn out.
