Marsha Hinds

On Money - There are many ways to get rich quickly. All of them are risky. Some of them are dangerous. A few of them are downright fatal.

On Love - Love without trust is the love you give a dog. You may call that cute little mutt a member of the family but you don't let him in the kitchen when there's a roast on the table.

On Atheism _ If people continue to think of atheism as a kind of religion, then I demand all the perks that real religions get. I want to build big empty buildings where like-minded people can gather once a week to debate a non-existent deity. I want tax-exempt status. I want real food, not cheap wine and crackers. I want a rocking band. I want altar men! Not altar boys__ltar MEN__nd I want them to look like the chain-clad guy who hands an envelope to RuPaul at the beginning of __o Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar_.

On Perseverance _ Persistence is admirable. Stubbornness is stupid. Just remember: the latter two even begin with the same three letters.

On Critique _ Those who can, do. Those who can__, teach. Those who can__ do or teach, criticize.

On Virtue _ When people want to describe the hideousness of a person or object, they may use the phrase __gly as sin_. But the phrase should be __gly as virtue_. Sin isn__ ugly. It__ highly attractive! That__ why so many people flock to it.
