Passion = Truth? Let me explain. I love when people are passionate about something. That surging of emotion is the one honest measure of what truth is. Though that passion may sometimes be confused with rogue-ish behavior - it's a truthful display of how a person really feels about something or someone at that particular moment. That passion IS truth.
"Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth."
- Henry David Thoreau

"All truths wait in all things..."
- Walt Whitman
"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give it to those who would not."
- Thomas Jefferson
"To say I could walk away and not miss the game would be a lie...I never stepped out onto the field or walked off a field where I didn't feel like I did everything I could possibly do to be the best."
- Brett Favre, recently retired New York Jets QB, former QB, Green Bay Packers

No, that's not right.

If you saw the Dykstra bit (on HBO, I think), you'd see that this guy's very much on the downhill side of fame, and pretty much a scumbag.

Paxton doesn't seem to deserve this kind of treatment...does he?

no - i know Dykstra's screwed up. Separated at Birth is simply the similarity in looks. not saying Paxton's personality is anything like Dickstra. Dykstra, i mean.
