Favorite Quote:
"It is nothing to die. It is frightful not to live."<br /> -Victor Hugo


We live, we die, we are nothing

But the sum of our deeds and

The memories formed

In the minds of passers-by.

On a single body, we are

Two faces

Perpetually searching

For each other, and

We are both destined
To rise from the scum

In which we were spawned, only to

Fall disgraced

Into our graves.
