Am I, or the others, crazy?" -Albert Einstein “Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.” -Dr. Seuss "Scars remind us where we've been. They don't have to dictate where we're going." “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” -Mark Twain “We godless lack that certainty, and we know the world is a complex place that requires compromise and is not ruled by a moral force." -PZ Myers "Death borders upon our birth, and our cradle stands in the grave.
