You Talkin' 'Bout Me?

The things a person says, the things a person does, and the things others say about a person can tell you a lot about that person. So, for your reading pleasure, quotes about myself. Really, it's like a clip show in website form. I took something that already existed on my site and grouped it up differently. Oh well. Judge me for yourself.
