"When you clean up a city, you destroy it."

-- Charles Bukowski

“We are scattered, stunned; the remnant of heart left alive is filled with brotherly hate... Whose fault? Everybody blamed somebody else. Only the dead heroes left stiff and stark on the battlefield escape.”
“I've always felt privileged to cover the White House and to have that ringside seat to history”
“Materialists try to live in the lower story NON-MATERIAL WORLD Subjective, Superstitious, Mental Constructs MATERIAL WORLD Objective, Scientific, Knowable Facts”
“My eyes are too big, my nose is too flat, my ears stick out, my mouth is too big and my face is too small... my body is thin as a clarinet and my ankles are so skinny that I wear two pairs of bobby socks because I don't want people to see how thin they are.”
“Ladies and gentlemen, these are not assertions. These are facts, corroborated by many sources, some of them sources of the intelligence services of other countries.”
“Science itself is steadily nailing the lid on atheism's coffin.”
“People love talking, and I have never been a huge talker. I carry on an inner monologue, but the words often don't reach my lips.”
“Life is all about having a good time.”
