The meek shall inherit the earth - a 6 foot plot above them.

Most gods have the manners and morals of a spoiled child.

Cast me into a dungeon, burn me at the stake, crown me king of kings, I can 'pursue happiness' as long as my brain lives - but neither gods nor saints, wise men nor subtle drugs, can ensure that I will catch it.

In the absence of clearly-defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it.

I also think there are prices too high to pay to save the United States. Conscription is one of them. Conscription is slavery, and I don't think that any people or nation has a right to save itself at the price of slavery for anyone, no matter what name it is called. We have had the draft for twenty years now; I think this is shameful. If a country can't save itself through the volunteer service of its own free people, then I say: Let the damned thing go down the drain!

There are things which cannot be taught in ten easy lessons, nor popularized for the masses; they take years of skull sweat.

Progress isn't made by early risers. It's made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something.
