there's nothing for them to unleash their cruelty and ignorance on."

"Life, to me, is like a beautifully scripted and choreographed Broadway musical.
The only problem is that three quarters of the cast have forgotten their lines and
dance steps. It's incredibly demeaning and frustrating."
Mariann Brooks

"It appears to me that they who in proof of any assertion rely
simply on the weight of authority, without adducing any argument in support
of it, act very absurdly. I, on the contrary, wish to be allowed freely to question and
freely to answer you without any sort of adulation, as well becomes those
who are in search of truth."

"17But we will certainly do whatsoever thing
goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense
unto the Queen of Heaven, and to pour out drink
offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our
fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the
cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem:
for then had we plenty of victuals, and were
well, and saw no evil.
18But since we left off to burn incense to the
Queen of Heaven, and to pour out drink offerings
unto her, we have wanted all things, and have
been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
Jeremiah 44 (King James Version)
"The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."
Galations 5:6
"Do not believe in anything simply because you
have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply
because it is spoken and rumoured by many. Do
not believe in anything simply because it is
found written in your religious books. Do not believe
in anything merely on the authority of your
teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions
because they have been handed down for many
generations. But after observation and analysis,
when you find that anything agrees with reason and
is conductive to the good and benefit of one and all,
then accept it and live up to it."
