SI VIS PACEM PARA BELLUM-Ex-Sheriff Martin Howe to Will Kane in "High Noon"
"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.

Florida is Jurassic Park, USA. Not only do they have giant snakes, but there's this mouse in Orlando you wouldn't believe the size of.

Personally, I'd love to see Florida go back to its natural state. Use the whole place as a nature preserve / ecological study.
