    "I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever, in religion, in philosophy, in politics, or in anything else, where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent. If I could not go to heaven but with a party, I would not go there at all." --Thomas Jefferson , 1789.

    This quote has never seemed more appropriate.

    "The essence of Christianity is told to us in the Garden of Eden history. The fruit that was forbidden was on the Tree of Knowledge. The subtext is, All the suffering you have is because you wanted to find out what was going on. You could be in the Garden of Eden if you had just kept your ****ing mouth shut and hadn't asked any questions." Frank Zappa

    "Parents are burning these kids out on structure. I think, every day...All children should have three hours of daydreaming. Just daydreaming! You could use a little of it yourselves, by the way. Just sit at the window, stare at the clouds. It's good for you! If you wanna know how you can help your children... Leave them the **** alone!" - George Carlin
