Figure it out. Work a lifetime to pay off a house. You finally own it, and there's nobody to live in it. - Arthur Miller

He's just a big stupid man to you, but I tell you there's more good in him than in may other people.

Don't be seduced into thinking that that which does not make a profit is without value.

The concept of unity, in which positive and negative are attributes of the same force, in which good and evil are relative, ever-changing, and always joined to the same phenomenon — such a concept is still reserved to the physical sciences and to the few who have grasped the history of ideas. When it is recalled that until the Christian era the underworld was never regarded as a hostile area, that all gods were useful and essentially friendly to man despite occasional lapses; when we see the steady and methodical inculcation into humanity of the idea of man’s worthlessness — until redeemed — the necessity of the Devil may become evident as a weapon, a weapon designed and used time and time again in every age to whip men into a surrender to a particular church or church-state.
