Men rarely if ever dream up a god superior to themselves. Most gods have the manners and morals of a spoiled child.
Robert A. HeinleinUnarmed hand-to-hand fighting does not change through the ages; only the name changes, and it has only one rule: do it first, do it fast, do it dirtiest.
Robert A. HeinleinI've found out why people laugh. They laugh because it hurts- because it's the only thing that'll make it stop hurting...
