Freedom has ceased to be a birthright; it has come to mean whatever we are still permitted to do. - Joseph Sobran

I'm against sin. I'll kick it as long as I've got a foot. I'll fight it as long as I've got a fist. I'll butt it as long as I've got a head. I'll bite it as long as I've got a tooth. And when I'm old, fistless, footless, and toothless, I'll gum it till I go home to glory and it goes home to perdition! -Billy Sunday (1862-1935)

When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.-John Muir, 1838 - 1914

It is always interesting to see people in dead earnest, from whatever cause, and earthquakes make everybody earnest.-John Muir, 1838 - 1914
