 The Peanut Gallery
I can't stand tolerance.
All tolerance is,
Is holding hatred in check.

Would you rather people
Despise you?

People who tolerate me
Already despise me,
One is simply more honest
About it than
The other.

Security is a state of mind;
No amount of anything
Can provide it.

Poor is a perpetual state of mind,
Broke is a temporary situation.

Money is a receipt for effort. – Rand

Money without effort is corrupt. –Rand

Money is only important because
It tells you where the activity is.
You want to know what is going
On in the world?
Follow the money. – Lenny

The common people
cannot be trusted with money,
because they will go out
and blow it. –Andrew Carnegie

Fundamentalism in America
Was,
In part,
Born out of
the need of
The church
To become
A business.—Unknown

The optimist believes
This is the best of all worlds,
The pessimist fears
This is true. – Unknown

“Pray to whatever gods
You believe in
That computers never
Become sentient.
There is only one
Conclusion they can
Come to about
Humans.

They cannot be trusted
To govern themselves.” – Many Science Fiction Writers

“The purpose of government
is that no man need fear
another.” – Unknown

“I love my country,
it's my government
I fear.” – A Button

“If I stay
Or if I go
It is not for you
That I do so.
It is for myself.
If it benefits you,
Then it is a side effect,
Not a direct action
In answer to
Your issue.” –Manea
