I’m afraid that people who know me as I usually am will discover I have another side, a better and finer side. I’m afraid they’ll mock me, think I’m ridiculous and sentimental and not take me seriously.

Thank God he’s famous. Chrissy Teigen

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

I have finer points. Chris Eubank Sr.

The first step in Occultism is the study of the invisible Worlds.

From a player’s standpoint, it’s on you to make sure that you’re watching the film, you’re doing everything during the week necessary to improve, to make sure you understand the finer coaching points, every little detail, so that when you’re in the middle of the game, you’re not playing slow or apprehensive.
