loved this one and just had to share it :) <br /><br />"We have too many men of science, too few men of God. We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon of the Mount . . . The world has achieved brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing than we know about living."<br /><br />General Omar N. Bradley, Chief of Staff, United States Army, 1948

The world sure as hell hasn't improved since then has it? Technological advances up the ying yang but the same political BS world wide.

<br />Whoever wishes to foresee the future must consult the past; for human events ever resemble those of preceding times. This arises from the fact that they are produced by men who ever have been, and ever shall be, animated by the same passions, and thus they necessarily have the same results. <br />Machiavelli

If we eliminate the politics from government, and the media hype from reporting, our national complaint margin will plument. The BS is agonizing.

"The credit belongs to those people who are actually in the arena...who know the<br />great enthusiasms, the great devotions to worthy cause; who at best, know the<br />triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, fail while daring greatly...so that<br />their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory<br />nor defeat."
