in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. - Winston Churchill Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” ...—C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963) "Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance, the only thing it cannot be is moderately important." — C.S. Lewis Enslaved, illogical, elate, He greets th' embarrassed Gods, nor fears To shake the iron hand of Fate Or match with Destiny for beers. The budget should be balanced. The Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." -Cicero, 55 BC Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies." To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead" -- Thomas Paine "never interrupt your enemy when he's committing suicide." - Napoleon “The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left .”Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough." ~Mae West "Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul.

A. Hayek, Law, Legislation and Liberty, Volume 2 But all who are wicked will keep on strutting, while everyone praises their shameless deeds. ~ Psalm 12:8. “In the Soviet Union, capitalism triumphed over communism.
