It's all very well to run around saying regulation is bad, get the government off our backs, etc. Of course our lives are regulated. When you come to a stop sign, you stop; if you want to go fishing,...
I am not anti-gun. I'm pro-knife. Consider the merits of the knife. In the first place, you have to catch up with someone in order to stab him. A general substitution of knives for guns would promote...
From orphanages to space colonies, it was all shallow but endearingly enthusiastic futurism. Gingrich was the kind of person who read a book or two on something and would then be quite afire as to how...

And the funny thing is, I've always been an optimist - it's practically a congenital disorder with me.
The thing is this: You got to have fun while you're fightin' for freedom, 'cause you don't always win.
Many a time freedom has been rolled back - and always for the same sorry reason: fear.
So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities...
The only reason to have a positive mental attitude is that it makes life better. It doesn't cure cancer.
