I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.
Galileo
When I get honest, I admit that I'm a bundle of paradoxes. I believe and I doubt, I hope and I get discouraged, I love and I hate, I feel bad about feeling good, I feel guilty about not feeling guilty. I am trusting and suspicious. I am honest and I still play games. Aristotle said I am a rational animal; I say I am an angel with an incredible capacity for beer.
