Donald Trinite Des Plaines, IL History Major "Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?" Andrew Viscariello Brookfield, IL Classics Major Latin and History Minors "worrying is a lot like a rocking chair: its keeps you occupied for a while, but in the end, it really gets you nowhere." Jonathan Bruckman Chicago, IL Biochemistry and Physics Majors Chemistry Minor "The only sovereign I can allow to rule me is reason. The first law of reason is this: what exists, exists; what is, is. From this irreducible bedrock principle, all knowledge is built. This is the foundation from which life is embraced. Reason is a choice. Wishes and whims are not facts, nor are they a means to discovering them. Reason is our only way of grasping reality – it’s our basic tool of survival. We are free to evade the effort of thinking, to reject reason, but we are not free to avoid the penalty of the abyss we refuse to see."

This is a hard life. I don't like seeing the sun at all, to tell you the truth. Just reminds me about how ugly everybody is. It's the price you gotta pay, you know. When you're a hard worker. When you're in a band. It's not all free beer and late mornings. Mostly, it's...there's some whisky in there, that's free too. And there's some food that's free. And there's the attention of adoring fans. Stuff like that is hard to deal with. That's why i gotta sleep so long. Just gotta get over it, it wears me out. All the free stuff and all the privelage that i have. It's really tiring. I'm gonna go on the bus now and think about brushing my teeth and then probably decide against it."
