“This is a day of celebration!
Today, we are divorcing the past
and marrying the present.
Dance,
and you will find God
in every room.
Today, we are divorcing resentment
and marrying forgiveness.
Sing,
and God will find you
in every tune.
Today, we are divorcing indifference
and marrying love.
Drink, and play that tambourine
against your thighs.
We have so much celebrating to do!”
― Kamand Kojouri

“Our freedoms are vanishing. If you do not get active to take a stand now against all that is wrong while we still can, then maybe one of your children may elect to do so in the future, when it will be far more riskier — and much, much harder.”

“The worst thing about living in America is the corruption. At home, we could contain it in the bars and nightclubs and bases. But here, will will not be able to protect our children from the lewdness and the shallowness and the tawdriness Americans love so much. They're too permissive.”
― Viet Thanh Nguyen, The Sympathizer
