Something to think about...

"To give aid to every poor man is far beyond the reach and power of every man. Care of the poor is incumbent on society as a whole."

-Baruch Spinoza

"Happiness is a virtue, not its reward."

-Baruch Spinoza

"Sin cannot be conceived in a natural state, but only in a civil state, where it is decreed by common consent what is good or bad."

-Baruch Spinoza

"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards."

-Soren Kierkegaard

"Prayer does not change God, but it changes him who prays."

-H.L. Mencken

"Even cohabitation has been corrupted—by marriage."

"Religion always remains higher than everyday life. In order to make the elevation towards religion easier for people, religion must be able to alter its forms in relation to the consciousness of modern man."

-Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

"I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, uh, people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and, I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, or, uh, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future, for our children."

-Caitlin Upton

May I kiss you then? On this miserable paper? I might as well open the window and kiss the night air.
