Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.

Ol' Alfie's heart was in the right place....the proceeds from this poem...."The Charge Of The Light Brigade" went to benefit and call attention to the forlorn and neglected veterans of Crimea and other bush wars the Victorian age was known for. The men who ordered this disastrous attack came out looking somewhat like heroes, but the soldiers who were injured and killed were forhotten almost immediately. The only good that came of it was the eventual creation of The Red Cross. What the poem didn't mention was the earlier morning Charge of the HEAVY Brigade, which was quite successful, and the astonishing Stand of Sir Colin Campbell's 93rd Sutherland Highlanders, against overwhelming Russian Cavalry, while IN LINE. The Battle of Balaclava and the Sutherland lads were the genesis of the expression "The Thin Red Line". 40 years afterward, more or less, my Grandfather served in that unit. Post-Tennyson, the Brit equivalent of a VA got going, and those remaining vets found peace with better options.

“People think that a liar gains a victory over his victim. What I’ve learned is that a lie is an act of self-abdication, because one surrenders one’s reality to the person to whom one lies, making that person one’s master, condemning oneself from then on to faking the sort of reality that person’s view requires to be faked…The man who lies to the world, is the world’s slave from then on…There are no white lies, there is only the blackest of destruction, and a white lie is the blackest of all.”

It’s a shame that there is a lie I must live everyday because the truth would ruin me. I wonder what the person I’m quoting would think about bestiality?

Free like to whoever knows who I’m quoting without looking it up!

Now, at last, the masks had fallen away. The strings of the puppets had become visible, and the hands of the prime mover exposed. Most ironic of all was the last gift that Raziel had given me: More powerful than the sword that now held his soul, more acute even than the vision his sacrifice had accorded me. The first, bitter taste of that terrible illusion -
Hope.

Loved Carlin. His "seven dirty words" was used as an indecency benchmark by TV and radio stations for years. Would you like to quote him on naming the six different kinds of farts?

"When someone trusts you...really trusts you with their possessions, money,
secrets or their heart, they are certain they will never be betrayed.
Tuck that in very snugly to you. Protect it and never take it lightly.
There is no higher honor ever to be bestowed upon you."

" A Panther is just like a Leopard,
Except that he hasn't been peppered.
Should you behold a Panther crouch,
Prepare to say ' Ouch! '
Better yet, if called by a Panther?
Don't Anther. "

It's just that life tastes sweeter when it's wrapped

But sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it, and the soul can't rest. Then sometimes...just sometimes, the Crow can bring that soul back to put the wrong things right."
