"For states' rights advocates, the Constitution is like a contract that is openly violated by one party with impunity.

Congress now routinely collects taxes in order to return the money to the states with conditions on their conforming to federal demands."

“Maybe stories are just data with a soul.”
“All that Christ did and suffered would have been necessary had only one human soul been the object of redemption; and nothing different and nothing more would have been required had every child of Adam been saved through his blood.”
“I hope somebody falls in love with me - other than my fiancee. But that's what you want. As a player you want a team that really wants you; head coach, GM, owner, everybody that really wants you in their place and the players believe in you.
