Damage is only temporary!!!!! Damage is a thing, a construct; its something we can take or leave.

We learn from damage, we adapt from damage, we OVERCOME damage.

My dear Vercetti, you may feel that damage controls you, but it is the exact opposite. WE CHOOSE TO LET DAMAGE CONTROL US.

You have the power to turn damage off......

We have the power to send a gigantic middle finger to damage!!!!! Fuck damage!!!!
