So this meme's been going around. I won't tag anyone cause I never do, but here's the deal. Go to http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 and look through the random quotations and find five that speak to you and post them in your journal. I'd really like to expound on some of these and why they resonate with me right at this time, but I guess I'll just let them speak for themselves.  


There is no reciprocity. Men love women, women love children, children love hamsters.
--Alice Thomas Ellis


There's a whiff of the lynch mob or the lemming migration about any overlarge concentration of like-thinking individuals, no matter how virtuous their cause.
--P. J. O'Rourke


Say what you will about the Ten Commandments, you must always come back to the pleasant fact that there are only ten of them.
--H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)


Children might or might not be a blessing, but to create them and then fail them was surely damnation.
--Lois McMaster Bujold, "Barrayar", 1991


I appreciate people who are civil, whether they mean it or not. I think: Be civil. Do not cherish your opinion over my feelings. There's a vanity to candor that isn't really worth it. Be kind.
--Richard Greenberg
