Mick JaggerI'm really interested in violence. And I think there's an inevitably cinematic property that violence brings to the moviegoing experience.

God is not "emotional," if that word is used as some kind of weakness.

John DeweyIn order to align your life choices with your values, you will need to inquire about the effects of your actions (and inactions) on yourself and others.

Asking questions is liberating because we develop great understanding and discover more choices with our new knowledge
