    In their eyes as they pass is not hatred, not excitement, not despair, not the tonic of their victory - there is just the simple expression of being here as though they had been here doing this forever, and nothing else.
    -Ernie Pyle


    My fav of all time, it's about the US infantry in North Africa during World War Two. Here's the link to it: The God-****** Infantry

    "No one said it was gonna be easy! If it was, everyone would do it..that's who you know who really wants it."

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    When people in New Zealand were emigrating to Aussie in droves during the '80's the Prime Mininster of NZ (Muldoon) was asked

    "Prime Minister, what do you think about all these people moving to Australia?"

    His reply..

    "Well I feel it raises the IQ of both countries"

    Classic.

    Some piously affirm: "The truth is such and such. I know! I see!"
    And hold that everything depends upon having the “right” religion.
    But when one really knows, one has no need of religion. - Mahavyuha Sutra

    Freedom necessarily involves risk. - Alan Watts
