Favorite Quote:
Alfred Pennyworth: Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

I’ve got a long way to go
Before I see your face
And before it can all catch up on me
My memories fade
And I cannot remember your address
Which I wrote down on a scrap of paper
One summer day
When the rain poured
And I drowned myself
In your southern comfort
