to think that something we've done is something that will be remembered. Someting we've done will go down as an all time classic. It becomes part of people's lives, their memories, their hopes...But if it all ends tomorrow, we've had a good ride, we've seen what it's like' -- Brian Nash

Nick Beggs doesn't like us, he thinks we're morally wrong. I think he's a stupid idiot. There's another one who doesn't like us: Boy George. That's a real idiot.
