@SuperDuke Being an idealist is not being a simpleton; without idealists there would be no optimism and without optimism there would be no courage to achieve advances that so-called realists would have you believe could never come to fruition.

@SuperDuke I'm not ready to let the youthful part of myself go yet. If maturity means becoming a cynic, if you have to kill the part of yourself that is naive and romantic and idealistic - the part of you that you treasure most - to claim maturity, is it not better to die young but with your humanity intact?

@ChippySuave @SuperDuke I’ll be five feet under and still claiming my youthful bliss.
@SuperDuke @carmahaz Damn straight, skippy! Mine, too.
