Cheer up, Brian. You know what they say: some things in life are bad. They can really make you mad. Other things just make you swear and curse. When you're chewing on life's gristle, don't grumble; give a whistle, and this'll help things turn out for the best. And... always look on the bright side of life...!! - Brian 1:04:38

"My apologies, good friends, for the fracture of good order, the burning of paper instead of children, angering of the orderlies in the front parlor of the charnel house. We could not, so help us God, do otherwise...we say: killing is disorder; life and gentleness and community and unselfishness is the only order that we recognize. For the sake of that order, we risk our liberty, our good name. The time is past when good men can remain silent, when obedience can segregate men from public risk, when the poor can die without defense."
-Daniel Berrigan, Reflection on the civil disobedience of burning draft cards in Catonsville, Maryland.

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that."
-- Martin Luther King, Jr.
