I don't think I possess any skill that anyone else doesn't have. I've just had perhaps more of an opportunity, more of an exposure, and been fortunate to survive a lot of situations that many other weren't so lucky to make it.

Yes, so long as there is wrong to right.

And men are free to think and act,
Life is worth living still.
