Kurt Vonnegut quote: "Forgive him- he knows not what he does."
Forgive him- he knows not what he does. Kurt Vonnegut
Why does Sea World have a seafood restaurant I'm halfway through my fish burger and I realize Oh man....I could be eating a slow learner. Lyndon B. Johnson

But the only true America is that country where you are at liberty to pursue such a mode of life as may enable you to do without these, and where the state does not endeavor to compel you to sustain the slavery and war and other superfluous expenses which directly or indirectly result from the use of such things. Henry David Thoreau

Oprah Winfrey quote: "Can you see me? Can you hear me? Does anything I say mean..."
Can you see me? Can you hear me? Does anything I say mean anything to you? Oprah Winfrey
Freedom is not worth having if it does not connote freedom to err. It passes my comprehension how human beings, be they ever so experienced and able, can delight in depriving other human beings of that precious right. Mahatma Gandhi
