It is only necessary to make war with five things; with the maladies of the body, the ignorances of the mind, with the passions of the body, with the seditions of the city and the discords of families. Pythagoras
Alone. Yes, that's the key word, the most awful word in the English tongue. Murder doesn't hold a candle to it and hell is only a poor synonym. Stephen King
What we think or what we know or what we believe is in the end of little consequence. The only thing of consequence is what we do John Ruskin
