Sign is a live, contemporaneous, visual-gestural language and consists of hand shapes, hand positioning, facial expressions, and body movements. Simply put, it is for me the most beautiful, immediate, and expressive of languages, because it incorpora...
But there is something about Time. The sun rises and sets. The stars swing slowly across the sky and fade. Clouds fill with rain and snow, empty themselves, and fill again. The moon is born, and dies, and is reborn. Around millions of clocks swing ho...
Dragline: He was smiling... That's right. You know, that, that Luke smile of his. He had it on his face right to the very end. Hell, if they didn't know it 'fore, they could tell right then that they weren't a-gonna beat him. That old Luke smile. Oh,...

Hold your children with your heart but teach them with your hands.
Only the tent pitched by your own hands will stand.
It is better to be a mouse in a cat's mouth than a man in a lawyer's hands.
I help others because I can, not because I expect something in return.
God gave us crying so other folks could see when we needed help, and help us.
I sold my elegant blackness to all those childhood ghosts and now they pay me for it.
