"On the street I saw a girl, cold and shivering, in a thin dress, with little hope of a decent meal. I became angry and said to God, 'Why did you permit this?' For a while God said nothing. That night he replied quite suddenly:
'I certainly did do something about it...I made you!"
-Anonymous quote from the book Please Help Me, God written by Sister Mary Rose Macgreedy from Cvenant House in NY

"Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to reform." - Mark Twain
