January 27, 2018 - Throughout the past decade, hostility against growing economic inequality has gained ground.

“We have been silent witnesses of evil deeds. we have been drenched by many storms; we have learnt the arts of equivocation and pretense; experience has made us suspicious of others and kept us from being truthful and open; intolerable conflicts have worn us down and even made us cynical. Are we still of any use? What we shall need is not geniuses, or cynics, or misanthropes, or clever tacticians, but plain, honest, straightforward men. Will our inward power of resistance be strong enough, and our honesty with ourselves remorseless enough, for us to find our way back to simplicity and straightforwardness?”- Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who was executed by the Nazis for participating in the German resistance movement.

January 16, 2018 - I’m tired of liars, scoundrels and cheats.

I’ve reached the limits of my tolerance for individuals who have bartered their morality, consciences, integrity, religious beliefs, and liberty for political gain.

Enough already.
