Oh, the torment bred in the race,
the grinding scream of death
and the stroke that hits the vein,
the hemorrhage none can staunch, the grief,
the curse no man can bear.
But there is a cure in the house, and not outside it, no,
not from others but from them,
their bloody strife. We sing to you,
dark gods beneath the earth.
Now hear, you blissful powers underground --
answer the call, send help.
Bless the children, give them triumph now. — Aeschylus

I'm sympathetic to the people who go, "Whoa, we'd like to have the benevolent, wise dictator.

The governor of Minnesota [Mark Dayton], a couple of months ago he said that the Affordable Care Act is no longer affordable. He's a staunch Democrat. Very strong Democrat.

It's crazy." And you know what, they were both right. — Donald Trump

And I believe it's important for people to be able to defend themselves. — Sean Hannity

Rabbits (says Mr. Lockley) are like human beings in many ways. One of these is certainly their staunch ability to withstand disaster and to let the stream of their life carry them along, past reaches of terror and loss.

It is, rather, a blessedly circumscribed imagination and an intuitive feeling that Life is Now. — Richard Adams
