L'optimisme, ce n'est pas le refus de voir ce qui ne va pas, c'est le désir de ne pas s'y attarder. // Donne moi le courage de changer les choses que je peux changer, la sérénité d'accepter celles que je ne peux pas changer, et la sagesse de distinguer entre les deux. (Marc Aurèle) // Don't raise your voice; improve your argument. (Desmond Tutu) // Be the change you want to see in the world. (Gandhi)

-Dr. Don Shirley: So where did this "Tony the Lip" moniker come from?

-Tony Lip: It's not "Tony the Lip", it's "Tony Lip". One word. I got it when I was a kid 'cause my friends said I was the best bullshit artist in the Bronx.

-Dr. Don Shirley: It doesn't bother you that your friends - the people closest to you - consider you a liar?

-Tony Lip: Who said liar? I said bullshit artist!

-Dr. Don Shirley: And what's the difference?

-Tony Lip: 'Cause I don't lie! Ever! I'm just good at talkin' people into... y'know, doin' things they don't wanna do... By bullshittin' 'em.
