We don't want to be afraid to make a choice because we're afraid to make a mistake because most decisions aren't final. Feelings change all the time.

Ladies like improv stilts, and I think men like improv giant cocks. But one of the great things about improv is that you get to play some roles you'd never get to play otherwise, you know, like the old Italian pizza-maker who's passing on the business down to his son. You get to play it all when you improvise.
