Because you're focusing on the important part of the story: the bracelets are working. — Daniel Tosh
To be honest, I don't really consider myself a prodigy. Learning the piano, I have encountered some difficulties. There are many challenges in playing and I've grown frustrated at times...

Yes, there might be some 'traffic lights', but they all turned 'green'. — George Li

To regulate something always requires two opposing factors. You cannot regulate by a single factor. To give an example, the traffic in the streets could not be controlled by a green light or a red light alone. It needs a green light and a red light as well.

Two different inclinations have to be there in readiness to make the cells proliferate. — Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Secure web servers are the equivalent of heavy armoured cars. The problem is, they are being used to transfer rolls of coins and cheques written in crayon by people on park benches to merchants doing business in cardboard boxes from beneath highway bridges.
