Accuracy is, in every case, advantageous to beauty, and just reasoning to delicate sentiment. In vain would we exalt the one by depreciating the other. – David Hume
I was raised Jewish, my wife was raised Catholic.

We teach our children compassion, charity, honesty and the benefits of hard work. – Steven Levitan
