Cat’s In The Bag

Posted February 3, 2009, 8:41 p.m.

I’m back from the family reunion cruise, which was a blast. I’ll write more about it sooner or later, but you can see some pictures from Melissa in the mean time.

I have a huge, huge, overwhelming to-do list at the moment and it’ll probably take me at least a few days to drill through it. This site might see a ‘less-than-usual’ rate of updates for a few days as I play a complex game of catch-up.

For now, please enjoy this funny picture of Vincent in a bag on our kitchen floor.

Quotes

If one doesn’t respect oneself one can have neither love nor respect for others.

Ayn Rand

Few people are prepared to use their reason without fear or favor, or bold enough to apply it relentlessly to every moral, political and social issue. . . .

Nicolas Chamfort

No matter what you or anyone else does, there will be someone who says that there’s something bad about it.

Tom Clancy

Have nothing to do with stupid, senseless controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.

Paul the Apostle

If we think it is impossible to love stupid, ugly, selfish, bothersome people, we are wrong, because there is one stupid, ugly, selfish, bothersome person that we do succeed in loving all the time: the one in the mirror.

Peter Kreeft

There is nothing so pitiful as a young cynic because he has gone from knowing nothing to believing nothing.

Maya Angelou

[Einstein] said, in effect, that everything should be as simple as it can be but not simpler!

Roger Sessions

From a moral point of view this is certain: even if a doubt existed concerning whether the fruit of conception is already a human person, it is objectively a grave sin to dare to risk murder.

Catholic Church

Society in every state is a blessing, but government even in its best state is but a necessary evil, in its worst state an intolerable one. . . .

Thomas Paine

The consequences of an action do not increase its goodness or malice.

Thomas Aquinas

The strange American ardor for passing laws, the insane belief in regulation and punishment, plays into the hands of the reformers, most of them quacks themselves.

H.L. Mencken

Those who speak of love most promiscuously are the ones who’ve never felt it. They make some sort of feeble stew out of sympathy, compassion, contempt and general indifference, and they call it love.

Ayn Rand

There is no such thing as public money; there is only taxpayers’ money.

Margaret Thatcher

I find it hard, as a liberal, to see any justification for graduated taxation solely to redistribute income. This seems a clear case of using coercion to take from some in order to give to others and thus to conflict head-on with individual freedom.

Milton Friedman

The rights of neutrality will only be respected when they are defended by an adequate power. A nation, despicable by its weakness, forfeits even the privilege of being neutral.

Alexander Hamilton

For thou didst form my inward parts, thou didst knit me together in my mother’s womb.

Holy Bible

In every man’s writings, the character of the writer must lie recorded.

Thomas Carlyle

Democratic governments may become violent and even cruel at certain periods of extreme effervescence or of great danger: but these crises will be rare and brief.

Alexis de Tocqueville

Treat bad men exactly as if they were insane.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

Names are not arbitrary labels. Names are meanings. We grow into our names, or we fail to grow into them; we live out our names, or we fail to live them out.
