What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I think technically "Ich bin Berliner" is the correct term, but Berliners always use "Ich bin ein Berliner". As I said, if you want to know why you'd have to ask a German.Mikey wrote:Seafort - are you sure? I'm certainly no Aryan language scholar but I was pretty sure that use of the indefinitie article indicated a common noun.
