“One day, they will all come to my funeral just to make sure that I stay dead. But today is not that day! I am alive! My heart is still beating, and I am breathing fresh air for the first time in a long time.

We have a mission - to knock the pillars of this industry on their ass. We ain’t reading history books anymore, baby, we writin’ em! And this is what you’d call a paradigm shift.”
Got it?
