Hi, readers. I am Tony "the Tiger" Green. I have written this book, Pick Up Your Own Damn Crutch, for several reasons. It helps me work out mentally, the trials I have been through, allowing me to put in perspective regarding my life. There have been many good times in my life, and humorous times. I also hope my story will help others deal with their life trials, whether it is surgery/pain, mental illness/depression, or relationship/loneliness. I have always said, "Everyone is different, but we all have our strengths". Respecting yourself is very important. Life can be more joyous if you respect others for who they are and care for their needs. This will always make you feel better about yourself. I believe God, our Creator, put each one of us here to write our own story. We are here in this wonderful world God had given us. We need to appreciate all and take care of the gifts that we have family, friends, and our environment and help lift those who are less fortunate. You might wonder how I named this book. It starts with a trip to McDonald's with Mom and her best friend Lani Collins. I was 7 years old. Mom and Papa were always telling me to be careful and take care of my things. They would say don't depend on someone to help you! They were a lot of old people who were there eating too and they kept watching us. When we were eating, Mom told me again to be careful with my crutches and don't let them fall. After we ate and it was time to go, Mom told me again to get my crutches. When Mom and Lani reached the door, they looked back to make sure I was coming. As they looked, I dropped my crutches and said "Mom"! She yelled loud and everyone heard her say "Pick Up Your Own Damn Crutch!" All the people were shocked and Lani ran out the door because she was embarrassed. Ha ha ha! It has always been one of my favorite stories. I laugh about all the time with my family.

KAT LOMB (1909-2003) was one of the great polyglots of the 20th century. A translator and one of the first simultaneous interpreters in the world, Lomb worked in 16 languages for state and business concerns in her native Hungary. She achieved further fame by writing books on languages, interpreting, and polyglots. Polyglot: How I Learn Languages, first published in 1970, is a collection of anecdotes and reflections on language learning. Because Dr. Lomb learned her languages as an adult, after getting a PhD in chemistry, the methods she used will be of particular interest to adult learners who want to master a foreign language.

First published in 1935, On Escape represents Emmanuel Levinas's first attempt to break with the ontological obsession of the Western tradition. In it, Levinas not only affirms the necessity of an escape from being, but also gives a meaning and a direction to it. Beginning with an analysis of need not as lack or some external limit to a self-sufficient being, but as a positive relation to our being, Levinas moves through a series of brilliant phenomenological analyses of such phenomena as pleasure, shame, and nausea in order to show a fundamental insufficiency in the human condition. In his critical introduction and annotation, Jacques Rolland places On Escape in its historical and intellectual context, and also within the context of Levinas's entire oeuvre, explaining Levinas's complicated relation to Heidegger, and underscoring the way Levinas's analysis of "being riveted," of the need for escape, is a meditation on the body.

Some love stories aren’t meant to last Stella lives with depression, and her goals for junior year are pretty much limited to surviving her classes, staying out of her parents’ constant fights and staving off unwanted feelings enough to hang out with her friends Lin and Katie. Until Kevin. A quiet, wry senior who understands Stella and the lows she’s going through like no one else. With him, she feels less lonely, listened to—and hopeful for the first time since ever… But to keep that feeling, Stella lets her grades go and her friendships slide. And soon she sees just how deep Kevin’s own scars go. Now little arguments are shattering. Major fights are catastrophic. And trying to hold it all together is exhausting Stella past the breaking point. With her life spinning out of control, she’s got to figure out what she truly needs, what’s worth saving—and what to let go.
