I am not involved in any 'issues' because it's too sensitive for me - or my wife - to get involved. Every time we express an opinion it becomes a whole thing in itself.

Ernest Hemingway quote: "Perhaps wars weren't won anymore. Maybe they went on forever...."
Perhaps wars weren't won anymore. Maybe they went on forever. Maybe it was another Hundred Years' War. Ernest Hemingway
For I have promised to do the battle to the uttermost, by faith of my body, while me lasteth the life, and therefore I had liefer to die with honour than to live with shame ; and if it were possible for me to die an hundred times, I had liefer to die oft than yield me to thee; for though I lack weapon, I shall lack no worship, and if thou slay me weaponless that shall be thy shame. Thomas Malory
All the lessons of psychiatry, psychology, social work, indeed culture, have taught us over the last hundred years that it is the acceptance of differences, not the search for similarities which enables people to relate to each other in their personal or family lives. John Ralston Saul
That's what I told myself five hundred times: impossibility. I can tell you this much: the world is a great big log on the fires of love. Sue Monk Kidd
I know that I could live to be a hundred and visit every country in the world, but nothing would ever compare to that moment when I first kissed the girl of my dreams and knew that my love would last forever. Nicholas Sparks
Because a thing is going strong now, it need not go strong for ever,' she said. 'This craze for motion has only set in during the last hundred years.
