People just hate the idea of losing. Any loss, even a small one, is just so terrible to contemplate that they compensate by buying insurance, including totally absurd policies like air travel.
This is the absolute truth: and on this truth our tactics must be based. All tactics that are not based on this are false, and lead the proletariat to terrible defeat.
Dolores Fuller: You people are insane! You're wasting your lives making shit! Nobody cares! These movies are terrible!
Waiter: Hi, would you like some water? Loretta King: No. No water. No liquids! I'm terribly allergic to them.
Commander Shutz: How's the gas? A Jewish barber: Terrible, it kept me awake all night.
Mikael Blomkvist: You were here that day? Martin Vanger: that terrible day. Searching. Not finding. Even worse.
Ernest Hemingway: No subject is terrible if the story is true, if the prose is clean and honest, and if it affirms courage and grace under pressure.

I don't disrespect anybody who espouses a particular religion or belief - that is their own right to do that. But I think it's terribly important to look beyond the comfort that religion gives.
Religion has been terribly tarnished in the course of time, its pristine purity has long since vanished under the regime of creed, and it is no longer Catholic, that is to say, Universal.
Those nations that say it's a crime to preach your religion are making a terrible mistake. All they're doing is driving underground other forms of spiritual intuitions and practices.
