“As to ethics, unfortunately, we are still at sea. We never did have any popular base for what little ethics we knew, except the religious theories, and now that our faith is shaken in those theories we cannot account for ethics at all. It is no wonder we behave badly, we are literally ignorant of the laws of ethics, which is the simplest of sciences, the most necessary, the most continuously needed. The childish misconduct of our 'revolted youth' is quite equaled by that of older people, and neither young nor old seem to have any understanding of the reasons why conduct is 'good' or 'bad.” PeopleLittlesStillsReasonSeemsLawYoungUnderstandingReligiousWonderSeaYouthTheoryNeededMoralityEthicsAccountsIgnorantReason WhyBehaveSimplestOlder PeopleMisconduct Book:The Living of Charlotte Perkins Gilman: An Autobiography Source: The Living of Charlotte Perkins Gilman: An Autobiography
“If you're gay, you're gay. It's my Dennis Miller theory of homosexuality shot through the movie "Boy and the Dolphin." If you're a 12-year-old boy and you're watching the movie "Boy and a Dolphin" and a 27-year-old Sofia Loren crawls up out of the Aegean Sea after sponge diving, she's standing there in the deck of the boat in a see-through gauze top, rivulets of water dripping off her torso onto the deck of the boat. If you're a 12-year-old boy and you're watching that and you still want to make it with the captain of the boat, you're gay. You can't fight that. So it is what it is.” IfsWantYearsStillsFightingWaterBoysSeaTheoryGayShotsStandingBoatCaptainsHomosexualityDeckDivingDolphinsSpongesStanding ThereIt Is What It IsDrippingTorso Author:Bill O'Reilly
