I have learned how to live, how to be in the world and of the world, and not just to stand aside and watch. And I will never, never again run away from life. Or from love, either. — Sabrina Fairchild · 1954Alright, fine. You wanna be in a band? Fine. Go ahead. Play every night. Play three times a night!
