• He who endeavors to serve, to benefit, and improve the world, is like a swimmer, who struggles against a rapid current, in a river lashed into angry waves by the winds.

Only here and there the stout, strong heart and vigorous arms struggle on toward ultimate success.

Seriously, were a band of traitors to concoct a series of positions deliberately designed to weaken America, they would be hard pressed to beat the current GOP dogma - hobble education, starve the government by slashing taxes to the rich, kneecap attempts to jumpstart the economy by fixating on debt, invite corporations to dominate political discourse, balkanize the population by demonizing minorities and immigrants and let favored religions dictate social policy.

• I'm livin' in times where my daughters are found around
  Kids who can't afford thinking caps...
  But always found drinkin' raps and eatin' off beats,

  Everybody playin' rebel with no sign of a cause.
