“The biggest threat to the American people today lies with the United States government. ... [T]he long-term solution is to dismantle, not reform, the iron fist of the welfare state and the controlled economy.

Don't kid yourself that they are.” IfsMenEnoughFeelingsKidsRomanceLyingPassionLove IsLove YouBehaviorActiveOur RelationshipVerbsNounsLying MenBehaving Badly Author:Susan Forward
“When I look at a wildlife or nature subject, I dont see the feathers in the wings, I just count the wings. I see exciting shapes, color combinations, patterns, textures, fascinating behavior and endless possibilities for making interesting pictures. I regard the picture as an ecosystem in which all the elements are interrelated, interdependent, perfectly balanced, without trimming or unutilized parts; and herein lies the lure of the painting; in a world of chaos, the picture is one small rectangle in which the artist can create an ordered universe.” WorldLooksLyingArtistUniverseInterestingSubjectsPossibilityColorPaintingShapesBehaviorElementsExcitingRegardWingsChaosPatternsEndlessCombinationFascinatingBalancedFeathersTextureWildlifeEcosystemsLureTrimmingEndless PossibilitiesRectangles Author:Charley Harper
