The devil does not bring sinners to hell with their eyes open: he first blinds them with the malice of their own sins. Before we fall into sin, the enemy labours to blind us, that we may not see the evil we do and the ruin we bring upon ourselves by offending God. After we commit sin, he seeks to make us dumb, that, through shame, we may conceal our guilt in confession.
Alphonsus Liguori

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

I admired and wanted to be a lot like Angie Martinez. As I got older, I realized that I had a soft monotone voice and that being a DJ may not be the career for me.

The cold hand of history, which is for ever robbing us of some of our oldest and best cherished stories, points rigidly to the fact that no such person as King Arthur ever presided over a Round Table.

But after a certain while, they knew when they had pushed their luck with me, and that it was time to, you know, maybe back off.

We need not be intimidated by the wine snob because we know that, in the last analysis, he is only putting on a front.

One of the most fascinating aspects of the wine-hobby is the extent to which you learn all the time.
