Thought for the Day

At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? 
I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. 

As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

~ Abraham Lincoln


Love him or hate him, Lincoln was right on the money with this one.

OH so damn true! Sigh!

Agreed, sir - and it's difficult to pretend we're not committing slow-motion suicide, these days.
