The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus, for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and stronger timber in their place, insomuch that this ship became a standing example among the philosophers, for the logical question of things that grow; one side holding that the ship remained the same, and the other contending that it was not the same. – Plutarch**

Formerly ran her own secondhand luxury resale company. Special thanks to Kevin A. Tamerler, for his loving support but mostly for buying me a (counterfeit? See supra notes 69–91!) Rolex. Additional thanks to President Judge Michael J. Koury, Jr., for improving my writing and understanding the value and importance of Louboutins.
