Then to side with Truth is noble when we share her wretched crust, Ere her cause bring fame and profit, and 't is prosperous to be just Then it is the brave man chooses, while the coward stands aside, Doubting in his abject spirit, till his Lord is crucified. (James Russell Lowell)

Who wants to brave those bronze beauties Lying in the sun. With their long soft hair falling Flying as they run. Oh they smile so shy And they flirt so well And they lay you down so fast Till you look straight up and say Oh lord, am I really here at last?

Bob Seger

George Chapman

She say, Celie, tell the truth, have you ever found God in church I never did. I just found a bunch of folks hoping for him to show. Any God I ever felt in church I brought in with me. And I think all the other folks did too. They come to church to share God, not find God.

Those who think the information brought out at a criminal trial is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth are fools. Prosecuting or defending a case is nothing more than getting to those people who will talk for your side, who will say what you want said.
