If I had thought the beef marrow might be a hell of a lot of work for not much difference, I needn__ have worried. The taste of the marrow is rich, meaty, intense in a nearly-too-much way. In my increasingly depraved state, I could think of nothing at first but that it tasted like really good sex. But there was something more than that, even. What it really tastes like is life, well lived. Of course the cow I got marrow from had a fairly crappy life _ lots of crowds and overmedication and bland food that might or might not have been a relative. But deep in his or her bones, there was a capacity for feral joy. I could taste it.

Julie and Julia: My Year of Cooking Dangerously

We are not sheep or cows. God didn__ create fences for us or boundaries to contain our nationalities. Man did. God didn__ draw up religious barriers to separate us from each other. Man did. And on top of that, no father would like to see his children fighting or killing each other. The Creator favors the man who spreads loves over the man who spreads hate. A religious title does not make anyone more superior over another. If a kind man stands by his conscience and exhibits truth in his words and actions, he will stand by God regardless of his faith. If mankind wants to evolve, we must learn from our past mistakes. If not, our technology will evolve without us.

Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. Ladies, I apologize. For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?", here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!

She says it__ wrong to be frittering away my hours asking questions when there__ work to be done. But I don__ see how a question can be wrong. Can you, Pa? Ma says the Bible sets out what__ right and wrong so we don__ have to bother ourselves with it none but it seems to me that it ain__ so matter-of-fact. Like when you kilt that old cow last week and I didn__ want to eat it __ause he was my favorite and so gentle besides. Ma said I was sinful to waste food. But I said that maybe we shouldn__ go about killing and eating cows when they was so peaceful-like. Ma said that was foolishness and that God put the cows here just so as we can eat __m. But that don__ seem like such a good deal for the cows to me. Preacher told us not more than four Sundays ago that God loves all his creatures, but it ain__ loving to my way of thinking to create a thing just for it to be food. Them cows ain__ never done nothing to us. Which got me to thinking that maybe we got it wrong and they got a purpose we don__ know nothing about.
