Greetings fellow quote lovers:
I hope all of you are having what will turn out to be a
wonderful new year. And that literally means a year
filled with wonder.
Our abilities to live in “wonder” have been compromised
with the advent of digital tools and technology. If you
have a chance to EXPERIENCE wonder, take it. Pay attention
to the sunset… the snow calmly blanketing the trees,
the joy of your child swaying to music…even your dog
playing with a toy.
The world is filled with wonder if we just slow down to
catch up with it
Enjoy today’s offerings and thank you for continuing
this journey with me.
Best,
JA

is destroyed.

How many does it take to metamorphose wickedness into
righteousness? One man must not kill. If he does, it is
murder…But a state or nation may kill as many as they
please, and it is not murder. It is just, necessary,
commendable, and right. Only get people enough to agree
to it, and the butchery of myriads of human beings is
perfectly innocent. But how many does it take?
–Adin Ballou, The Non-Resistant, 5 February 1845
