Greek Love

"That's because we are uncool! And while women will always be a problem for guys like us, most of the great art in the world is about that very problem. Good-looking people have no spine!Their art never lasts! They get the girls, but we're smarter...Yeah, great art is about conflict and pain and guilt and longing and love disguised as sex, and sex disguised as love... and let's face it, you got a big head start...The only true currency in this bankrupt world if what we share with someone else when we're uncool. My advice to you. I know you think those guys are your friends. You want to be a true friend to them? Be honest and unmerciful." -Almost Famous

Count your life by smiles,
not tears.
