"When thugs by nature meet thugs by political conviction, 5-0 is not surprising." ― John McCarthy Topic(s): Nature More From John McCarthy "The peace movement is a great force for peace. Some of the world’s most quarrelsome people act out their aggressions through the peace movement." "Foolishness is rarely a matter of lack of intelligence or even lack of information." "There is only one thing more harmful to society than an elected official forgetting the promises he made in order to get elected; that’s when he doesn’t forget them." More In Nature "The sacred rights of mankind are not to be rummaged for among old parchments or musty records. They are written, as with a sunbeam, in the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of the divinity itself; and can never be erased."― Alexander Hamilton "Mutability of temper and inconsistency with ourselves is the greatest weakness of human nature."― Joseph Addison "Americans are apocalyptic by nature. The reason why is that we’ve always had so much, so we live in deadly fear that people are going to take it away from us."― Stephen King
