Thorny Claw's Look

"Do what we can, summer will have its flies:
If we walk in the woods, we must feed mosquitos:
If we go a-fishing, we must expect a wet coat.
Then climate is a great impediment to idle persons:
We often resolve to give up the care of the weather,
But still we regard the clouds and the rain."
ESSAY VII Prudence (1841)

"As I have stood in the crosshairs of those who target Second Amendment freedoms,
I've realized that firearms are not the only issue.
No, it's much, much bigger than that!
I've come to understand that a cultural war is raging across our land,
In which, with Orwellian fervor, certain acceptable thoughts and speech are mandated."
~ Charlton Heston ~

"Sorrow, the heart must bear,
Sits in the home of each, conspicuous there.
Many a circumstance, at least,
Touches the very breast."
For those
Whom any sent away,--he knows:
And in the live man's stead,
Armor and ashes reach
The house of each.
~ Robert Browning ~
