There are times when wisdom cannot be found in the chambers of parliament or the halls of academia but at the unpretentious setting of the kitchen table.

...it's just another one of those things I don't understand: everyone impresses upon you how unique you are, encouraging you to cultivate your individuality while at the same time trying to squish you and everyone else into the same ridiculous mould. It's an artist's right to rebel against the world's stupidity

You know something is wrong when the government declares opening someone else's mail is a felony but your internet activity is fair game for data collecting.

You cannot hinder someone's free will, that's the first law of the Universe, no matter what the decision.

The devil has not vanished simply because people refuse to believe he exists, no more than God has.

Errors do not cease to be errors simply because they're ratified into law.

So it's true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love.
