“All red meat contains saturated fat. There is no such thing as truly lean meat. Trimming away the edge ring of fat around a steak really does not lower the fat content significantly.

“All redistribution, regardless of the criterion on which it is based,
involves "taking" from the original owners and/ or producers (the "havers" of something) and "giving" to nonowners and nonproducers (the
"nonhavers" of something). The incentive to be an original owner or
producer of the thing in question is reduced, and the incentive to be a
non-owner and non-producer is raised. Accordingly, as a result of subsidizing individuals because they are poor, there will be more poverty. By
subsidizing people because they are unemployed, more unemployment
will be created. Supporting single mothers out of tax funds will lead to
an increase in single motherhood, "illegitimacy," and divorce.”

“All relationships have ups and downs. Romantic fantasy often nurtures the belief that difficulties and down times are an indication of a lack of love rather than part of the process. In actuality, true love thrives of the difficulties. The foundation of such love is the assumption that we want to grow and expand, to become more fully ourselves. There is no change that does not bring with it a feeling of challenge and loss. When we experience true love it may feel as though our lives are in danger; we may feel threatened.”
