Top Episodes Quotes
- “The key to life is that there is a judgment. And if you don't die of a tragic illness, you're going to have a judgment day. And the time to have that judgment day wasn't like my parents in the 9th inning with two outs on their deathbed. The time to have that judgment day is when you're 70, when you're 48, when you're 35, and you still got an opportunity to figure out what it is you're going to respect.“ by Ron Shaikh
