zero mean greed
It means zero to be against greed.
sleep home night
Sleep more at night. If it's allowed at work or home, take a nap in the afternoon. You'll be amazed at how much better you'll feel.
mean animal breathing
Greed is a basic part of animal nature. Being against it is like being against breathing or eating. It means nothing.
lying listening bed
I am so in love with just lying in bed listening to Mozart.
mean dust devil
If we are just specks of dust hit by lightning, if we have no spark of God in us, why not just take whatever we can and devil take the hindmost? I mean, we are fools not to do that if there is no right or wrong.
thank-you thanksgiving sacrifice
I thought that all of the sacrifices and blessings of the whole history of mankind have devolved upon me. Thank you, God.
helping-others matter helping
Life lived to help others is the only life that matters.
lines inquiry scientist
I always assumed scientists were free to ask any question, pursue any line of inquiry without fear or reprisal.
soul cadillacs shots
Every soul deserves a shot at a Cadillac, but not everyone should be guaranteed a Cadillac.
alive humans complexes
Humans are alive, therefore life must be complex.
christian believe tired
I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don't think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period.
thinking feelings littles
My feeling is that Darwinism is only at best a partial solution, and an extremely dangerous partial solution. I would say, based on the little I know, Darwinism explains microevolution within species quite well. As to its broader consequence and implications, I don't think it explains individual species evolution at all well.
stars real men
I don't consider an actor a star if he's paid $20 million and grimaces in front of the camera and has a stunt man stand in for him. They may be fine actors, but they're not role models. The real stars are wearing body armor in 130-degree heat . . . They're getting shot at and they don't have any stunt doubles standing in for them.
No one will do it for you.
