Oh, it is impossible - utterly impossible! Alexander Dumas

It was from facing this vast hardness that the boy's mouth had become so bitter; because he felt that men were too weak to make any mark here, that the land wanted to be let alone, to preserve its own fierce strength, its peculiar, savage kind of beauty, its uninterrupted mournfulness.

But the dignity of human life is unbreakably linked to the existence of the personal-infinite God. It is because there is a personal-infinite God who has made men and women in His own image that they have a unique dignity of life as human beings. Human life then is filled with dignity, and the state and humanistically oriented law have no right and no authority to take human life arbitrarily in the way it is being taken. Francis Schaeffer
Anne Perry quote: "The men who cannot laugh at themselves frighten me even more..."
The men who cannot laugh at themselves frighten me even more than those who laugh at everything. Anne Perry
There was an old bastard named Lenin. Who did two or three million men in. That's a lot to have done in. But where he did one in. That old bastard Stalin did ten in. Robert Conquest
