Thoughts for the Day

"The only winner in the War of 1812 was Tchaikovsky"

"Based on the evidence, the bible isn't scripture. It's a Rorschach test."

"Independent thinking does not mean questioning other people's convictions. It means questioning your own."

"Cats aren't just snobs, they're Republicans. Dogs of course, are Democrats. They'll lick anyone's butt."

"For some folks, Christian charity is only a stone's throw away."

"The difference between a dog and a human being is that when a dog is unconscious, he lies down."

"The Constitution only guarantees you the right to say what you think. It does not guarantee you an audience."

"Ideology is always neat. People aren't neat. You want neatness, be an ideologue. If you want to get along with people, if you want to make a difference, then you have to work in a different domain, one in which ideology serves people, not the other way around.

"What neither political party has ever learned is the most basic of all lessons: When you make someone else's character the issue, your own character becomes the issue too."

~ Solomon Short
