"Ho sempre creduto che la vita fosse disporre sul tavolo, nel miglior modo possibile, le carte che ti sei trovato in mano. Invece all'improvviso ne arriva una che spariglia tutte le altre, e la vita è proprio come ti giochi quell'ultima carta. Per ciascuno di noi l'esistenza è costellata di eventi che in prima battuta sono sembrati inaffrontabili, e invece poi hanno portato a una rinascita, a un nuovo equilibrio.

Between 1994 and 1997, James Brown's loaded magazine became the the must-buy and must-be-in publication of the decade.
