“We are halfhearted creatures fooling about with drink and sex and ambition, when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”

C.S. Lewis, Weight of Glory

"Have you ever tried explaining a math problem, social concept, historic event to someone and they just couldn't get it? No matter how hard you try, no matter which direction you spin it, no matter how many times you relate it to easier concepts, they just don't get it. If you have, then you'd understand why they become enraged. You can only remain calm so long in the face of utter ignorance."

"It is the soldier,not the reporter who has given us the freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer , who gives us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin
is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag." ~Unknown
