<strong>Beliefs</strong>
"News is the inexact measure of the ebb and flow of the tides of human aspiration, the ignominy of mankind, the glory of the human race. It is the best record we have of the incredible meanness and the magnificent courage of man." - Stanley Walker, New York Herald Tribune
A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. - George Bernard Shaw
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation - Aristotle
<strong>Politics</strong>
Independent. I like smart, informed, caring, honest people in office committed to doing what's best for the people they serve. I also like my tax money spent wisely and with the long-term in mind.
<strong>Religion</strong>
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same god who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use. - Galileo Galilei
