I am neither a free-trade man, willing to collect all the money we have to raise by direct tax upon the people, nor am I willing to lay a tax simply for protection when the Government does not need the money. ↗

Freedom is poetry, taking liberties with words, breaking the rules of normal speech, violating common sense. Freedom is violence. ↗

You can't get a job without experience and you can't get experience until you have a job. Once you solve that problem you are home free. ↗

The communitarians may say you've been enjoying too much individual freedom, and that you must give up some of that for the benefit of the community. But they really mean that they want more power over your life - to force you to subsidize, obey and conform to their choices. ↗

I've written many extra verses to songs that I learned to sing - an extra verse about a friend, or just add some verse - and that led to writing my own songs. ↗

People have no idea what a hard job it is for two writers to be friends. Sooner or later you have to talk about each other's work. ↗

When friends stop being frank and useful to each other, the whole world loses some of its radiance. ↗

Freedom is a need of the soul, and nothing else. It is in striving toward God that the soul strives continually after a condition of freedom. God alone is the inciter and guarantor of freedom. He is the only guarantor. External freedom is only an aspect of interior freedom. Political freedom, as the Western world has known it, is only a political reading of the Bible. Religion and freedom are indivisible. Without freedom the soul dies. Without the soul there is no justification for freedom. Necessity is the only ultimate justification known to the mind. ↗

I would always have been the geek who's your friend. I will never be the dark guy with a sensitive side, as much as I yearn to be. ↗

I've played with IVs before, during and after games. I've played with a broken hand, a sprained ankle, a torn shoulder, a fractured tooth, a severed lip, and a knee the size of a softball. I don't miss 15 games because of a toe injury that everybody knows wasn't that serious in the first place. ↗
