We can't equate spending on veterans with spending on defense. our strength is not just in the size of our defense budget, but in the size of our hearts, in the size of our gratitude for their sacrifice. and that's not just measured in words or gestures.

The claim is also sometimes made that science is as arbitrary or irrational as all other claims to knowledge, or that reason itself is an illusion. as ethan allen said those who invalidate reason ought seriously to consider whether they argue against reason with or without reason; if with reason, then they establish the principle that they are labouring to dethrone. if they argue without reason, which they must do, in order to be consistent with themselves, they are out of reach of rational conviction, nor do they deserve a rational argument.

The only sovereign i can allow to rule me is reason. the first law of reason is this: what exists exists; what is is. from this irreducible, bedrock principle, all knowledge is built. this is the foundation from which life is embraced. reason is a choice. wishes and whims are not facts, nor are they a means to discovering them. reason is our only way of grasping reality–it is our basic tool of survival. we are free to evade the effort of thinking, to reject reason, but we are not free to avoid the penalty of the abyss we refuse to see." -richard
