It is not excess of thought but defect of fertile & generous emotion that marks them out... We make men without chests and expect of them virtue & enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst.— C.S. Lewis
If you steal bread from a convenience store because your child is hungry, I sympathize. If you get caught, you may be separated from your child for breaking the law. "We had to cross the border illegally, because the lines were too long", is not the most compelling of arguments.-Mike B
Hate crimes are loathsome. Faking them is insidious and shouldn’t be excused. Despite Smollett’s denials, nothing the prosecutor said in dismissing the case supports that.-David Axelrod
"Orwellian language: Free speech is 'hate speech' 'cause you could be cruel to some group. Censorship is called 'trigger warnings', segregation is 'safe spaces' and having some skepticism that man-made global warming is sort of 'creationism' or denialism'."-Victor Davis Hanson
"Why the hell is a 39 year old woman hanging around vigils on a college campus instead of staying home caring for her kids, her private servers, and her secret bank accounts?"-Stilton Jarlsberg on Chelsea Clinton

That's the thing about life...any number of things can kill you! Appreciate each day and every person in your life, because...you never know!-Mike B
The 2020 candidates will face an unpleasant choice: reverse course, thereby revealing themselves as the empty-suited opportunists that they are, or else persist in following an ignorant 20-something bartender down the path to electoral ruin.-Michael Knowles
The camera-preening and antics of members of Congress at televised hearings like this is genuinely embarrassing for the country. You would not trust this crew to search for that missing sock in the dryer, never mind unravel a complicated criminal conspiracy.-Jim Geraghty
I was doing some quick research on college conservatives and came across your piece. It gave me talking ideas for the article I wrote, so I was hoping to get some feedback from you.
People might not get all they work for in this world, but they must certainly work for all they get.- Frederick Douglass
