Sometimes we want to believe something so badly that we allow ourselves to be taken advantage of.

The more I learn, the more I yearn.

Once you get into your thirties, you stop giving a fuck what people think about your opinions. You're more confident.

The world is a goddamned evil place, the strong prey on the weak, the rich on the poor; I__e given up hope that there is a God that will save us all. How am I supposed to believe that there__ a heaven and a hell when all I see now is hell.

Save the children, save mankind.

Good lord, what have I gotten myself into?

There__ nothing worse than being violently jerked away from creativity.

We need to be fit and ready for anything that might come our way.

The greatest trick Christianity ever pulled was convincing the world that Satan exists.

Sometimes it's torturous to think of things we can't possibly have.

It is the selfish parents who are to blame. Pay attention, be involved in your children__ lives. They are your legacy, your only hope.

People should read more.

College is a different scene than it was ten years ago. It used to be all about sex and drugs. Now it__ all about texting and fast food.

If a responsible, mentally sound American wants to own and AR-15, that__ their right. Besides, when the zombies come_okay, you don__ like the zombie thing. When the Chinese invade our country, who do you want to depend on? The over-extended police force and the National Guard? Or the next door neighbor who__ a former Marine and has enough guns and ammunition for your entire block?

Corporate greed controls political will.

What if we were to subject public servants like politicians to a battery of psychological tests like the MMPI? Maybe we could determine which of them were more likely to become corrupt and save them the trouble of lengthy, expensive campaigns where they are ultimately harassed by greedy corporations.
