Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory or defeat.

Drivers with car bumper stickers are more aggressive. A study of drivers found that those with cars "personalized" with bumper stickers and ornaments are more likely to act out anger on the road by flashing lights, tailgating and blocking other drivers. The more markers there are on a car, the more likely the driver is to exhibit road rage when feeling provoked -- such as after being cut off. The specific message made no difference -- even when innocuous, such as "baby on board."
From Bottom Line
I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a parallel universe.
