Two decades of fighting the good fight, fighting the cause, and in case I havenโt been the clear, the cause is that one half of the human race is given the same basic equal rights that the other half enjoys. Or, not given. Given back. That is not a milestone, twenty years, that I intend to go unnoticed. I want to make some noise. I want to make a joyful noise, I want to make too much noise. I want the neighbors to complain. Iโm tired of being polite about something that matters so much.

Mark Victor HansenJust write. If you have to make a choice, if you say, 'Oh well, I'm going to put the writing away until my children are grown,' then you don't really want to be a writer.

That's why we'll stay locked up tight... ...in our own little private world... ...and throw away the key, so that no one can ever hurt us.

Jennifer DonnellyEven if leftists were able to get control of every institution they want to destroy, what they want is not possible.
