More From Hannah More

Sarah palin is an empty vessel ready to be filled by ideology that she doesn't even understand, and that is really scary. nothing is more frightening than an empty vessel in power.
Empty Vessels Scary Palin
A man's interest in the world is only the overflow from his interest in himself. when you are a child your vessel is not yet full;so you care for nothing but your own affairs. when you grow up, your vessel overflows; and you are a politician, a philosopher, or an explorer and adventurer. in old age the vessel dries up: there is no overflow: you are a child again.

Now, everybody knows the basic erogenous zones. you got one, two, three, four, five, six, and seven. ... ok, now most guys will hit one, two, three and then go to seven and set up camp. ... you want to hit 'em all and you wanna mix 'em up. you gotta keep 'em on their toes. ... you could start out with a little one. a two. a one, two, three. a three. a five. a four. a three, two. two. a two, four, six. two, four, six. four. two. two. four, seven! five, seven! six, seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven!

Gather the stars if you wish it so gather the songs and keep them. gather the faces of women. gather for keeping years and years. and then... loosen your hands, let go and say good-bye. let the stars and songs go. let the faces and years go. loosen your hands and say good-bye.
Letting Go Song Stars
There's nothing you can do that can't be done nothing you can sing that can't be sung. nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game. it's easy. nothing you can make that can't be made. no one you can save that can't be saved. nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time. it's easy. nothing you can know that isn't known. nothing you can see that isn't shown. nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. it's easy.

The second class of evils comprises such evils as people cause to each other, when, e.g. , some of them use their strength against others. these evils are more numerous than those of the first kind... they likewise originate in ourselves, though the sufferer himself cannot avert them.

Among the many misdeeds of the british rule in india, history will look upon the act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest. if we want the arms act to be repealed, if we want to learn the use of arms, here is a golden opportunity. if the middle classes render voluntary help to government in the hour of its trial, distrust will disappear, and the ban on possessing arms will be withdrawn.

The contented and economically comfortable have a very discriminating view of government. nobody is ever indignant about bailing out failed banks and failed savings and loans associations... but when taxes must be paid for the lower middle class and poor, the government assumes an aspect of wickedness.
