Liars Cheat Terrorist

More From Andy Rooney

The [israelis] believed - they were possessed of an absolute certainty and conviction - that 'terrorists' were in chatila. how could i explain to them that the terrorists had left, that the terrorists had worn israeli uniforms, that the terrorists had been sent into chatila by israeli officers, that the victims of the terrorists were not israelis but palestinians and lebanese?

And people who believe in god think god has put human beings on earth because they think human beings are the best animal, but human beings are just an animal and they will evolve into another animal, and that animal will be cleverer and it will put human beings into a zoo, like we put chimpanzees and gorillas into a zoo. or human beings will all catch a disease and die out or they will make too much pollution and kill themselves, and then there will only be insects in the world and they will be the best animal.

Leaders must not be naive. i used to say, "liars shouldn't lie." what a sad waste of words that is! i found out liars are supposed to lie. that's why we call them liars - they lie! what else would you expect them to do?

Everything is deception: seeking the minimum of illusion, keeping within the ordinary limitations, seeking the maximum. in the first case one cheats the good, by trying to make it too easy for oneself to get it, and the evil by imposing all too unfavorable conditions of warfare on it. in the second case one cheats the good by keeping as aloof from it as possible, and the evil by hoping to make it powerless through intensifying it to the utmost.

By profession i am a soldier and take pride in that fact. but i am prouder - infinitely prouder - to be a father. a soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. the one has the potentiality of death; the other embodies creation and life. and while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. it is my hope that my son, when i am gone, will remember me not from the battle field but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer, our father who art in heaven.

By profession i am a soldier and take great pride in that fact, but i am prouder, infinitely prouder, to be a father. a soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. the one has the potentialities of death; the other embodies creation and life.

Our father which art in heaven - stay there - and we will stay on earth - which is sometimes so pretty.

I knew that our time together was almost over, i asked her if she liked sports, she asked me if i liked chess, i asked her if she liked fallen trees, she went home with her father, the center of me followed her, but i was left with the shell of me, i needed to see her again, i couldn't explain my need to myself, and that's why it was such a beautiful need, there's nothing wrong with not understanding yourself.

My father was absolutely no good.

I work as my father drank.
