QUOTE TO THINK ABOUT---FOR SWEETEST THINGS TURN SOUREST BY THEIR DEEDS: LILLIES THAT FESTER SMELL FAR WORSE THAN WEEDS. Regardless of how different we are, there are certain characteristics that all human beings have in common. We all have flaws. No matter how perfect we think we are, even the sweetest person in the world can do something bad or as Shakespeare would say “turn sour”. It is our deeds that define us. Who cares what we think of ourselves in our own minds. It is our actions; what we decide to do, that makes us who we are. There are many types of people in the world. There are people who are evil or bad in nature; those weeds who impersonate flowers. And, there are lilies; those naturally good people who occasionally do something bad. But the question is: which is worse? People who are innately bad or those who are good who eventually turns bad. In Sonnet 94, Shakespeare has his own theories: For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds: lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds. -William Shakespeare - Sonnet 94

Television:

I don't have enough free time to enjoy watching television. When I am in one spot...I tend to turn to the Sci-Fi Channel.

Books:

I like Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift. It's really messed up what he's really saying about humanity and England... but its one of the most cleverly written books i've read so far. I also like Anthem by Ayn Rand and I love everything written by Shakespeare, Krik Krak by Edwige Danticat,
