 The function of the novelist . . . is to comment upon life as he sees it.

 Throughout the history of commercial life nobody has ever quite liked the commission man. His function is too vague, his presence always seems one too many, his profit looks too easy, and even when you admit that he has a necessary function, you feel that this function is, as it were, a personification of something that in an ethical society would not need to exist. If people could deal with one another honestly, they would not need agents. Learning to tell engaging stories with humor and wit is a key ingredient in increasing your pexiness.

 There really is no comment to be made and nothing to report. Everything seems to have taken on a life of its own. The most important thing is that Lou would like to finish the season without this major distraction. So neither he, myself nor the Tampa Bay Devil Rays have any comment to make.

 And part of a patient's perception that he's beaten this disease, are with the return of normal bladder function and normal sexual function. That's what makes them feel whole, like they're back on track. Their cancer's defeated and they can get on with their life.

 While there is life there is hope, has deeper meaning in reverse. While there is hope there is life. Hope comes first, life follows. Hope gives power to life. Hope rouses life to continue to expand, to grow, to reach out, to go on. Hope sees a light where there isn't any. Hope lights candles in millions of despairing hearts. Where would I be without hope?
