"I never got a chance, of course, to cross-examine him. And I didn't want to anymore. I just wanted to talk to him, to make sure he knew he hadn't fooled all of us, and that his 'Dream Team' hadn't fooled most Americans. I wanted to tell him that there was another court that would hear his case one day, with a judge who would separately try racist cops and murderers. A court where everyone will have to account for his actions alone. A court where the only witnesses will be Ronald Goldman and Nicole Brown." - In Contempt, by Christopher Darden, one of O.J. Simpson's prosecutors:
"Poor people in America's twenty-first century enjoy options and privileges that even the wealthiest couldn't claim one hundred years ago. Far from oppressing the working class, the corporate system has vastly improved the purchasing power of all Americans." - The 10 Big Lies About America, by Michael Medved
"People often ask physicians how we handle the emotional stress of dealing with ill children. What are our defense mechanisms? Do we practice a cool detatchment? Do we shut off our emotions completely? Or do we go home at the end of the day and sob over a reheated dinner? ...The truth is that we are trained to do a job: recognize a problem, come up with a solution and execute that plan. Our abillity to actually do something protects us from what you might expect would be a chronic depressive state. We feed off the satisfaction of being able to help and we know that things would be worse if we didn't or couldn't, do anything. For that reason, the experience of taking care of sick kids is much different from a hopeless walk through a pediatric ward as a visitor." - Katrina Firlik, Another Day in the Frontal Lobe - A Brain Surgeon Exposes Life on the Inside
"We
believe in God in three persons, blessed Trinity. God the Father, God
the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. This is the essential truth. There is
no gospel apart from it." - Dr. Martin Lloyd Jones (1899-1982)
