We__e better together than we are apart. The American Dream has us looking out for ourselves even at the expense of our neighbors. That shit ain__ true, man.

Why help make big companies bigger when you can get the same thing from the little guy and actually help someone accomplish their dream?

We__e been so busy with these things we let ourselves think actually mattered, but they don__. There__ no such thing as the right career, or morality, or destiny, or fate. There__ only life. And whether you honor it or ignore it. It__ ironic, but in trying to find God we__e been ignoring life.

I think the idea that we have anything to begin with is a lie we tell ourselves every day until we believe it. I think the law is there to enforce fictions that would not exist otherwise. Certain laws prevent us from deviating from those fictions, and thrive as a framework for the lifestyle we are all required to live. I believe that the reason possession is nine-tenths of the law is that without those laws there wouldn__ be any possession at all.

Listen in close, Wall Street Conquistadors, you__e spreading like vapor up through people__ floors, you__e moving en masse under the cracks of our doors and grabbing our children to work in your stores, feeding the needy to make them your whores, but you need to remember the grave you__e digging is yours.

We're a society of brats, fighting over the same toys. That, for me, is the closest we come to be inherently evil as a people. It leads to selfishness, inflexibility, and impatience -- among so many other traits that are ugly and harmful. We're combative, competitive, petty, and suffer from one fatal flaw that I can never get my head around. We recognize behavior in others that makes us insane, while turning right around and doing the exact thing to someone else.

It__ all society is, the repressed sex drives of men, the objectification of women, their paranoia, the posturing, the macho stances, the beauty standard, it__ all just one charade masking a never ending hard on.

You have a dedication to life and truth that burns out of you as beauty and I envy it so much I want to be around it for the rest of my life.

We were like two atoms in one molecule, hydrogen and oxygen. Both explosive alone, but the source of everything when we came together.

People used to make money, but somewhere along the way, it started making us.

They live, we sleep, we starve, they eat. You must comply with their deceit, don't trust the wolves to guard the sheep. They'll colonize when you close your eyes into a superpower that will never die.

When did a free country start to mean free enterprise? Who sold Democracy out for a golden calf we got to idolize?

Their Bibles had become an idol before God. That the cross, as a symbol, was an idol, even their own self-image was an idol before God.

How can we pick and choose which parts of the Bible to follow? One thing is God__ will and another is just cultural differences? What if it__ all cultural? What if homosexuality or saving yourself for marriage is as outdated as women staying silent in church or Leviticus forbidding tattoos?

It__ a cruel fact of war that it takes little more than applying pressure to one finger to end another person__ life. More than that, it__ a cruel fact of life that we are hardwired to follow the crowd in a moment of panic.
