Of course, I'm not often the top dog, but sometimes it's better not to be top dog, because you last longer. If a movie or play flops, you always blame the lead. They say, 'He couldn't carry it.' They always blame him. But they rarely blame the second or third banana. ↗

They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for. ↗
