In some contexts in pakistan maybe a beard is negative. it depends. and in some contexts in america maybe a beard is positive. i think there's certainly lots of hipster communities where having a beard makes me look a little bit less like a, you know, middle-aged fuddy-duddy. and there's some places in pakistan where having a beard, you know, certain corporate contexts, certain social contexts, where it's not an advantage to have a beard.
Hipster Thinking America
I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. they don't teach you how to love somebody. they don't teach you how to be famous. they don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. they don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. they don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. they don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. they don't teach you anything worth knowing.

So she became impulsive, scared by her inaction into perpetual action. when the eagle confronted her with the expulsion, maybe she blurted out marya's name because it was the first that came to mind, because in that moment she didn't want to get expelled and she couldn't think past that moment. she was scared, sure. but more importantly, maybe she'd been scared of being paralyzed by fear again. ~miles/pudge on alaska, pg 120-121
Thinking Past Alaska
I haven't fought with anyone else in over two thousand years. (kyrian) well, you're never too old to learn. (amanda) you can't teach an old dog new tricks. (kyrian) there's no time like the present. (amanda) time is of the essence. (kyrian) god helps those who help themselves. (amanda) you're not going to let me win this, are you? (kyrian)
Dog Winning Years
When she (my mother) passed away, i kind of understood the commitment that she made to make sure that i could stay in skating. and i wanted to live up to whatever i could. not so much win everything, but just to be the best that i could possibly be, to honor her memory and everything she went through to make sure that i was given the opportunities to be the best that i can be. not to be a world champion or an olympic gold medalist, but to be the best that i could be. and that was the most important thing that ever happened in my career.

He [ranger] stopped in front of my parents' house, and we both looked to the door. my mother and my grandmother were standing there, watching us. "i'm not sure i feel comfortable about the way your grandma looks at me," ranger said. [stephanie] "she wants to see you naked." "i wish you hadn't told me that, babe." "everyone i know wants to see you naked." "and you?" "never crossed my mind." i held my breath when i said it, and i hoped god wouldn't stike me down dead for lying.
