“Constructive anger,” the demon said, her voice dripping [...]

Quote of the moment

Now hot-tempered people get angry quickly and with the wrong persons and at the wrong things and more than is right, but their anger ceases quickly-which is the best point about them. This happens to them because they do not restrain their anger but retaliate openly owing to their quickness of temper, and then their [...]

Quote of the moment

Phallic worship, in some form or other, has been practiced by almost every race under the sun. Indeed, among primitive peoples, those who do not practice this cult are so few in number that they have, practically, no weight whatever in a discussion of this subject. Moreover, those primitive peoples who do not worship the [...]

Quote of the day

Even if Bush were personally using John Edwards’ hair dryer to melt the polar ice caps and writing scripts for Brett Ratner, I’d be okay with that. You know why? Bush. Kills. Terrorists. He kills them by the lot. He has a Cosco killing-terrorist mentality. And when Hillary wins and movies get better, and the [...]

Quote of the day

So let’s drop the snark and call a spade a spade: The very last thing John Kerry wants is to ever give the SwiftVets the legal tools they’d need to conclusively document their claims, because truth is, of course, a complete defense to defamation claims. Kerry doesn’t deserve vindication, and he knows he could never [...]

Quote of the day

There are times when somehow the spirit opens up to the awe and mystery of the universe. Afterward dailiness returns; but those minutes or hours live on, not only as memories. They become a part of life itself, giving it much of its meaning and even its direction.

Quote of the day

The sergeant allowed him four steps into the room before he put the flat of his hand against the door and sent it shut again. Fortus Kan spun around—to face the small and deadly mouths of two Patrol blasters. And at the sight all his resistance crumbled at once.
“Please!” His hands went up to his [...]

Quote of the day

The Law whereby my lady moves
Was never Law to me,
But ’tis enough that she approves
Whatever Law it be.
For in that Law, and by that Law
My constant course I’ll steer;
Not that I heed or deem it dread,
But that she holds it dear.

Her richest argosies,
Those would I spurn, and bid return,
If [...]

Quote of the day

Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn’t stop the pain
If I see you next to never

Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
