“If you look at any religious description of hell, it is the same as human society, the way we dream. Hell is a place of suffering, a place of fear, a place of war and violence, a place of judgment and no justice, a place of punishment that never ends.” IfsWayHumansLooksWarEndsDreamSufferingReligiousJusticeHellViolenceJudgmentPunishmentDescriptionHuman Society Author:Miguel
“God -- if he really exist -- is good, alive, self-conscious, and governs all things according to his benevolent and holy providence; but the world shows no indications of such a benevolent and holy Providence. This earth appears to be a hell, or at best a planet condemned -- a sort of purgatory: it is filled with violence, tyranny and injustice, and yet God, if he exist, is absolute sovereign, and has willed that things should be as they are! -- Therefore there is no God.” IfsWorldShouldSelfGodShowsEarthHellAliveViolencePlanetsHolyConsciousAll ThingsAbsolutesFilledInjusticeTyrannyProvidenceSovereignSelf ConsciousIndicationThere Is No GodBenevolentPurgatory Author:William Batchelder Greene
“The truth is that no one who hasn't actually experienced the senseless chaos and violence of combat can possibly understand it, but those who have and who try to explain it to the rest of us are offering us a precious gift: a part of their soul that's been scorched in the flames of Hell. It's a little like trying to describe music to the deaf or color to the blind ... to make the irrational somewhat sensible, which is always confusing and frustrating, and ultimately futile.” TryingLittlesSoulHellViolenceColorTruth IsBlindChaosFlamesCombatSensibleOfferingIrrationalConfusingFrustratingDeafPrecious Gifts Author:Khaled Hosseini
“People say what distinguishes us from the animals is that we think. Well, then why the hell don't we extend some compassion to those under tremendous duress? There's this whole idea that you work really hard so you can deaden your soul to the universe and enjoy yourself only in ways the Sierra Club will let you. But what about enjoying yourself by getting into the whole melee of poverty and racism and violence and murder and drug addiction? Get in there, roll up your sleeves, and do something!

“Me? I see an old, broke-ass black guy taking care of a bunch of kids, living life, taking them to school, and all that stuff, who's asking himself: What the hell is this?
