You finish a movie and you think, there, you’ve done it, really well, or best you can. But if you watch it, you see it was just bollocks.
Dig just a little bit deeper. Work just a little bit harder. And don’t get weary! Remember this is personal! Let’s finish what we started, and re-elect President Barack Obama!
