Quote by Mark Twain

His money is twice tainted: taint yours and taint mine.

His money is twice tainted: taint yours and taint mine.

Summary

This quote suggests that the money someone possesses is tainted or corrupted in two ways. Firstly, it is tainted because it was acquired at the expense of others, taking away from their own resources or wealth. Secondly, it is tainted because the person who possesses it may have engaged in questionable or immoral actions to obtain it. Thus, the quote implies that wealth gained through such means has a negative impact on both the person who possesses it and those from whom it was taken.

''Fate is like a small sandstorm that keeps changing directions. You change direction but the sandstorm chases you. You turn again, but the storm adjusts. Over and over you play this out, like some ominous dance with death just before dawn. Why? Because this storm isn't something that blew in from far away, something that has nothing to do with you. This storm is you. Something inside of you. So all you can do is give in to it, step right inside the storm, closing your eyes and plugging up your ears so the sand doesn't get in, and walk through it, step by step.

Like, right now, if you think about gay marriage - and they just started having the first gay marriages in New York - it shows what a potent idea marriage remains for people.
