"On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.” (Mencken). Also, the Bible passage (Matthew 13:12) that says: Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. I have heard this many times from "Christians" enamoured of unabashed avarice, and completely apathetic to the cruelty and misery they are surrounded with".
"To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places...To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away and never, never, to forget." ~ Arundhati Roy
