BioHow many lives have I lived in the past 26 years? (And how many before I was born, if you believe in that or find the model useful?) I've lost count. But this year in China makes the number of nations in which I've resided three, and we all know the significance of that number in fairy tales, religion, and other folklore.
I've moved my public blogging off of Livejournal due to the mass deletions under the guise of protecting children, which I do not believe have been appropriately rectified or atoned for.

-Leo Tolstoy

-Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not important whether she passes or fails the tests, but how she goes about those tests, how brave and how self-reliant, and how her spirit has remained intact.
-Guillermo del Toro
