The tragedy of modern war is that the young men die fighting each other – instead of their real enemies back home in the capitals. – Edward Abbey
Belief in God? An afterlife? I believe in rock: this apodictic rock beneath my feet. – Edward Abbey

Thats a youthful way of looking at life and I think that reflects in how you age. – Joshua Bell
