I cannot remember my past, my nose, or the colour of my eyes, or what my general opinion of myself is.

Then again, indifference descends.

And so it was settled. Sam Gamgee married Rose Cotton in the spring of 1420 (which was also famous for its weddings), and they came and lived at Bag End. And if Sam thought himself lucky, Frodo knew that he was more lucky himself; for there was not a hobbit in the Shire that was looked after with such care. When the labours or repair had all been planned and set going he took to a quiet life, writing a good deal and going through all his notes. He resigned the office of Deputy Mayor at the Free Fair that Midsummer, and dear old Will Whitfoot had another seven years of presiding at Banquets.
J. R. R. Tolkien

I was born and grew up in Phoenix, and I left there when I was 17 to go to Interlochen Arts Academy - a boarding school in Michigan - for a year, and then I went to college for a year at The Boston Conservatory and landed the 'Spring Awakening' tour midway through my freshman year, which was pretty cool.

When the groundhog casts his shadow And the small birds sing And the pussywillows happen And the sun shines warm And when the peepers peep Then it is Spring.

I'm just letting it go. I'm swinging at what I need to swing at. And when the time comes, I'll just do what I always done. It's just a matter of going out and feeling better. I feel like I'm involved in spring training and when that's the case I'm going to be myself.
Gary Sheffield

Jean-Jacques Rousseau
