This afternoon, I gave my father a final hug, a final kiss on the cheek, and told him I love him, and then I left. In a couple of days I'll be back in the grind and I shall never see him again.

... I'll let you in on a secret. Big people are exactly the same as little people. They're selfish, squabbling children whose motivations are jealousy and greed. No one becomes big when the hit adulthood. They just become better at hiding how small they are.

—Jonathan Rosenberg
