It kind of feels that way to me. And I'm pretty worried about it, to be honest with you.
Aaron McGruderChimpanzees are incredibly intelligent. They can learn more than 400 signs of American Sign Language.

Jane GoodallI've never been accused of a felony. I never spent time behind bars except for a few overnight jail times back in the Sixties. [But] I think there's a little bit of a criminal in all of us. Everybody's done something they don't want anybody to know about.
Johnny CashMy mother always accused me of being in love with the sound of my own voice. When we went on road trips, she'd be like, 'Stop singing. Be quiet, you're talking just to hear yourself speak.' It was probably true. I like to ramble on, which is probably why I'm well suited to interviews. You know, there's no other forum where you're literally supposed to sit down and just talk for hours about yourself. I love it.

Yvette CooperSlavish obedience to the clerics, who know how to squeeze every last drop of advantage out of religion, is killing our girls. We must speak-blaspheme, if necessary; be accused of being apostates, if that is what is required.

They will do everything to make that person look smaller than they really are.
Suzy KassemWe Jews are accused of being destroyers: whatever you put up, we tear down. It is true only in a relative sense.

And in your institutions we cannot find satisfaction.

Even in cases in which the person in question exclusively partners with these latter groups.
