♫ Living on Love, Living on Love and Libations...♫

Haven't heard much clamor about this Sigur Ros album, but it's been a go-to of late for me.

Ah, Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 11. Or as I call it, "The song that plays when Barney Stinson describes the plays in his Playbook."

Verses: Dedicatory Ode by Hilaire Belloc The wealth of youth, we spent it well And decently, as very few can. And is it lost? I cannot tell: And what is more, I doubt if you can. The question's very much too wide, And much too deep, and much too hollow, And learned men on either side Use arguments I cannot follow. They say that in the unchanging place, Where all we loved is always dear, We meet our morning face to face And find at last our twentieth year. . . . They say (and I am glad they say) It is so ; and it may be so : It may be just the other way, I cannot tell. But this I know: From quiet homes and first beginning, Out to the undiscovered ends, There's nothing worth the wear of winning, But laughter and the love of friends.

Nature has one rule - survival of the fittest. God's rule is Love your neighbor as yourself. They're at opposite ends of the moral spectrum.

Ethics don't come from secularism. They survive in spite of it, not because of it.

The abolition of the distinctions between the sexes is one of the great losses possible in society.

"If you want to be a good baseball player, I assure you you're preoccupied with it. What you eat, how much you work out, what muscles you work out, how you practice your batting stance. Think about how much time a person who wishes to be a good athlete devotes to being a good athlete, and then think about the amount of time a person who wants to be a good person devotes to being a good person. Tell me that they're analagous.

"If I lived within a hundred miles of the freest, most opportunity giving country on the face of this earth, and I were in a dead-end for myself and my children, and their children and their children, of course I would go there. What kills me is the demonization of that, but even moreso, is that we don't tell these people who come here, "Do you know why you have opportunity in America and why you don't have it in Mexico, and you didn't have it in Guatemala, and you didn't have it in El Salvador? Because we have a free system, because we believe in small government, and every Latin American country believes in big government. That's why. But nobody's even telling American-born kids this! 7th generation Americans are not being taught this. Bill Bennett said, "I am not worried about what illegal immigrants will do to America, I'm worried about what America will do to the illegal immigrants. In other words our value system has sunk. We don't Americanize people who come here legally or illegally."

"He has said that the core of his political philosophy is that we are our brother's keeper. Part of the problem with that is that the only place the phrase "brother's keeper" shows up in the bible is when one brother is trying to dodge the murder wrap of another brother. His basic point is right in the sense that Christianity certainly believes that we should love one another and the Golden Rule and all those sorts of things, and that's all fair and fine. It doesn't say that in order to love one another as if they are your brother, you should support a bloated, inefficient government program."

Jonah Goldberg
