choose correctly. - Woody Allen

more of the opportunities to cultivate our better natures.

anybody who is truly free.First,society begins by

It takes place every day - Al CamusWe will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason
if we dig deep in our history and remember that we are

That's where it ends.
-- Jon Bishop
We have pacified some thousands of the islanders and
buried them; destroyed their fields; burned their villages,
and turned their widows and orphans out-of-doors; furnished
heartbreak by exile to some dozens of disagreeable patriots;
subjugated the remaining ten millions by Benevolent
Assimilation, which is the pious new name of the musket; we
have acquired property in the three hundred concubines and
other slaves of our business partner Sultan of Sulu, and
hoisted our protecting flag over that swag. And so, by the
Providences of God โ€” and the phrase is the government's,
not mine โ€” we are a World Power.
- Mark Twain on our nation-building in the Philippines
