" There are two patterns eternally set before them; the one blessed and divine, the other godless and wretched: but they do not see them, or perceive that in their utter folly and infatuation they are growing like the one and unlike the other, by reason of their evil deeds; and the penalty is, that they lead a life answering to the pattern which they are growing like."

It would be amusing, if it weren't so sad, how we consistently fail to heed the words of those who have walked the walk, but instead prefer to side with those who have never done anything but talk the talk.

Another case in point: Ike and his warnings about the military- industrial complex that now runs the country...and much of the developed world.
