Though it be not written down, yet forget not that I am an ass. No, thou villain, thou art full of piety, as shall be proved upon thee by good witness.

Edith Wharton
My mom and dad got divorced when I was very young, and growing up in a family where the head of the household wasn't a man made a big difference. Dave Mustaine
