RIP Robin Williams, 1951-2014

Robin Williams; Dead Poets Society

“So avoid using the word very because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys – to woo women – and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do.”

~ Robin Williams, Dead Poets Society

It must indeed have been for the purpose of wooing women, because tonight I’m afraid it just isn’t up to the task of grieving. Farewell, Mr. Williams, and thank you for everything.
