Happy 4th of July everyone!
Happy birthday USA!
Today's been such an improved 4th that I'm foregoing my normal Independence Day rant. I hope it's been just as kind to all of you. *grins*
Before I go - vets everywhere, past, present and future, you're in my good thoughts today as always, I hope you're keeping as safe as you can and know that there are people who appreciate all that you do. *smiles*
Necessary Evils
- Tempestuous
Expectations are premeditated resentments.
Ergo if you, like me, expect only uncensored honesty and insanity... you really won't have any reason to resent me except perhaps jealousy. ;)
Things to ruminate over:
History is the fiction we invent to persuade ourselves that events are knowable and that life has order and direction. That's why events are always reinterpreted when values change. We need new versions of history to allow for our current prejudices. ~ Calvin (of Calvin and Hobbes fame)
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it. ~ Aristotle
Social order at the expense of liberty is hardly a bargain. ~ Donatien Alphonse François de Sade, Marquis de Sade
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Yes! Without the 'oops'! ~ David (Jeff Goldblum in Independence Day)
Was it everything you'd hoped for? ~ Ripley (Sigourney Weaver in Aliens)
