141. All great artists are tyrants who create in straight jackets.
142. One cannot educate without passing judgment.
143. Liberal scientists embrace Trent Reznor because he fits in with all their scientific theories which say man is but a collection of chemical reactions looking to get some in a fundamentally meaningless universe. Liberal scientists detest me because I defy their theories.
144. If this ship should go down these pearls of wisdom shall create a mountain which shall yet breach the surface of the ocean.
145. Only those who begin by walking alone end up leading people.
146. It's hard to criticize a nihilist of being a hypocrite. 'Tis why hypocrites aspire to nihilism.
147. Secular humanism is not the source of our moral values. It has to borrow them from the Judeo-Christian heritage, and it also has to give them back, with interest.
148. Liberals have discovered that contemporary kids are a great age group to tempt with porn-- many of them don't have parents who talk to them, and the unchaperoned soul is easy to seduce.
149. You'll never inspire nor exalt anyone with statistics.
150. If life imitates art, as Oscar Wilde suggested, then the NEA and the NEH are the greatest contemporary environmental hazards.
151. This country was founded upon the ideas of freedom and democracy. We only know of ideas by language. Thus a free society must value the Word.
152. In most humanities departments, all you have to do for a degree is take out some college loans and demonstrate contempt for some embodiment of Greatness.
153. Only he who takes life seriously can truly laugh.
154. The unexamined life isn't worth living, but the over examined life is no picnic either.
155. To modern liberals politics is a means to enforce truthless, baseless, arbitrary standards. To conservatives politics provides a mechanism to protect the traditions, ideals, and values by which the individual prevails and is best able to serve society.
156. Those writers who ignore yesterday's Greats shall be ignored by tomorrow's.
157. You'll never hear a feminist criticizing the decay of the family. This is because if they can't have one, nobody else should be able to either.
158. A writer should not dilute his message to reach a broader audience. He should bring his audience closer together, uniting them with the truth all men feel at the base of their souls.
159. Science does science and religion does religion. It is the mediocre mind that confuses the two, usually for purposes of obfuscation-- to muddy the waters so as to make them appear deeper.
160. If you put your faith in someone, and they betray you, then it is they who have lost, for in the end it is you who claims the faith, and they who own the betrayal.
