“Beware the irrational, however seductive. Shun the ‘transcendent’ and all who invite you to subordinate or annihilate yourself. Don’t be afraid to be thought arrogant or selfish.

― Christopher Hitchens

“To be good or bad doesn't count: life out in this world doesn't depend on that. It depends on a relation of forces based on violence. And survival is violence. You'll wear leather shoes because someone has killed a cow and skinned it to make leather.”
― Oriana Fallaci, Letter to a Child Never Born

“One mark of a great soldier is that he fight on his own terms or fights not at all.”
