“The pace of today's life, so quick, and so constantly pressured, makes people think only according to how somebody wants them to. A person is never alone; even when he is sent to a sanatorium or rest home for a rest, there is always a definite rhythm and program to follow, everything is decided for you. People are fed, informed, and taught what someone else has decided they need. Huge numbers of people are gathered together, but they are separated by the daily battle for life. All this has affected even believers, brought them closer to the 'norm', made them indifferent. A prescribed way of thinking makes it difficult for a person to become a believer and makes it difficult for the believer to preserve his faith. But do remember, Christ's Church will live eternally even under these circumstances. Preserve your faith, fight for individuality of thought, pray more, read the Scriptures, and God will preserve you. He will not let you lose the clarity of your thoughts. He will not let you think like the faceless mass of indifferent and cold people.”

“With abortion illegal here, and with crossing state lines to acquire one without threat of jailtime for me, or threats of imprisonment to the innocent doctor for doing the procedure, I'm stuck with whatever the fuck happens now. The repercussions of another person's actions falling completely on me.”

“Most people aren’t truly sorry for their bad actions. They only express regret, apologize, or back down when their original plan to harm you or damage your reputation fails, when their scheme backfires. Only then do they pretend to be good people who care about you, who want peace and goodwill for everyone. It’s only at that point that they start acting like decent human beings.”
