“You have to fight that much harder, and not in a whiny or combatant way,” she said. “You just have to be that much smarter, that much more organized, on your toes, always, and you have to dress that much more professionally. A lot more thought has to go into everything you do.”

Nempe ego dilexi te semper ut patrem, et adhuc a proposito meo non divertor.
