Slumism is the pent-up anger of people living on the outside of affluence. Slumism is decay of structure and deterioration of the human spirit. Slumism is a virus which spreads through the body politic. As other isms, it breeds disorder and demagoguery and hate.

Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better.

Jim Rohn

Man is not born to solve the problem of the universe, but to find out what he has to do; and to restrain himself within the limits of his comprehension.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Jon Bernthal

John Lee Hancock

Gustave Flaubert

I grew up in a family where the internalized understanding was that the kids were going to grow up into a better world. I worry, because I don't think my kids are going to have that. The world is very scary. The world would be scary without the choices the current administration made, but they just exacerbated it. And it ticks me off. I want my kids to have a good life.

Bradley Whitford

Whatever is begun in anger, ends in shame.

Benjamin Franklin

The beauty of it is when you can just show up and hit the notes.
