the only caveat I would add is this:
Pits are rough, strong, active dogs who will chew on and destroy anything unless you teach them to stick to thier chew-toys. If you're a shrinking violet or don't like being mauled for affection you'll be better off with a smaller less active breed.
also - and this may be common to many breeds of dog - my dogs are usually pretty nice to other dogs unless the other dog shows aggression. When that happens they generally attack with no further threatening or warning, so you have to be very careful with them around other animals, they do have a fighting instinct.
