Violence, the kind you see on television,
is not honestly violent.
There lies its harm.
~ William Strunk Jr. and E.B. White,
The Elements of Style
Ponder this:
Would television be willing to ban guns from their "entertainment"????
This is my simple religion.
There is no need for temples;
no need for complicated philosophy.
Our own brain, our own heart is our temple;
the philosophy is kindness. ~ Dalai Lama
