You cannot force things apart that are bound at the heart.

We are often insane with happiness. We are also very unhappy for reasons neither of us can do anything about. Like being separated.

Always remember that you were once alone, and the crowd you see in your life today are just as unecessary as when you were alone.

Contradictions are the impossible chasms that create forever separations. God is the forever bridge that creates impossible reunions.

There is nothing in which mankind have been more unanimous [founding nations upon superstition]; yet nothing can be inferred from it more than this, that the multitude have always been credulous, and the few artful. The United States of America have exhibited, perhaps, the first example of governments erected on the simple principles of nature: and if men are now sufficiently enlightened to disabuse themselves of artifice, imposture, hypocrisy, and superstition, they will consider this event as an era in their history... [T]he detail of the formation of the American governments... may hereafter become an object of curiosity. It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service had any interviews with the gods, or were in any degree under the inspiration of heaven... it will for ever be acknowledged that these governments were contrived merely by the use of reason and the senses... Thirteen governments thus founded on the natural authority of the people alone, without a pretence of miracle or mystery, which are destined to spread over the northern part of that whole quarter of the globe, are a great point gained in favour of the rights of mankind.[A Defence of the Constitutions of the United States of America, 1787]

I think it must be one of those things where no one__ wrong and everybody loses.
