Of course I've had a bunch of broken bones, sprains and I've had five or six concussions, with three serious ones.

I've also had six stitches in my head. ↗

It is the dissimilarities and inequalities among men which give rise to the notion of honor; as such differences become less, it grows feeble; and when they disappear, it will vanish too. ↗
