You can spend a lifetime, and, if you're honest with yourself, never once was your work perfect.

Political correctness is tyranny with manners.

Political correctness is just tyranny with manners. I wish for you the courage to be unpopular. Popularity is history's pocket change. Courage is history's true currency.

Dirty Harry, for example. Clint Eastwood was not a rogue cop. He was a maverick cop, but he was a good guy.

You can have my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

Going beyond one's backyard grants one perspective.
