"An unprecedented but faultless career spanning a decade, is highly commendable even if it wasn't a child's play.
"To be honestly honest, without been sarcastic, with no intention to offend the sensibility of others, you are not a mealy mouthed fellow who would sacrifice morality and ideals on the alter of timidity and manipulation.
