I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em. ↗

To realize that new world we must prefer the values of freedom and equality above all other values - above personal wealth, technical power and nationalism. ↗
