I love quotes! heres a good one .. its kind of long but AMAZING
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond
measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most
frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to
be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually ,who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that
other people won't feel insecure around you. We
are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born
to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. As we let our
own light shine, we subconsciously give other people
permission to do the same. As we're liberated
from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates
others."- Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
-- H.L. Mencken (1880-1956)
"We shall continue to have a worsening ecologic crisis until we reject the Christian axiom that nature has no reason for existence save to serve man." -Lynn White, Jr (from "The Historical Roots of our Ecological Crisis")
The way in which modern people interact with their animal counterparts is one of those things that make us look as though our evolution took place on a bell curve and it’s currently on the downside. Most of us now act toward native creatures the way our ancestors once acted toward Native Americans: we know that they were here first so we’re willing to tolerate them as long as they don’t demand to share when we build unattractive structures atop their former homes.
If they don’t cooperate, we slaughter them.
-Anna Quindlen
"There is only one ozone layer. Yosemite is either there for all of us or none of us. .. So the environment is one of the great unifying, cross-cutting social issues, and that attracts me. I believe that is precisely why the extreme right hates environmentalism, because environmentalism says human beings are all in the same lifeboat together." -Carl Pope, Executive Director of the Sierra Club
The majority of the stupid is invincible and guaranteed for all time. The terror of their tyranny, however, is alleviated by their lack of consistency.

It was once remarked that a person who destroys the works of man is codemned as a vandal, but a man who destroys the works of God is praised as a sportsman. How anyone can turn a creature of movement, light, and beauty into a blood bedraggled corpse in the name of sport and pleasure is beyond comprehension. - Clive Hollands
