There is not a thought that is being thought in the West or the East that is not active in some Indian mind

The downward spiral of Dumbness in America is about to hit a new low.

Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously.

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The dream we were conceived in will reveal a joyful face, and the world we once believed in will shine again in grace.

Don't expect your friend to be a perfect person. Help your friend to become a perfect person. That is true friendship
