She stated, "Religion seems to me one of the most interesting things in life, one of the most puzzling, richest and thrilling fields of human thought and speculation... religious experience and thought need also a light a day and sunshine and a companionable sharing with others of which it seems to me there is generally too little...

If Dalton Trumbo had been scared off of describing being trapped in a body with no arms, legs, or face because he was not personally disabled – because he had not been through a World War I maiming himself and therefore had no right to “appropriate” the isolation of a paraplegic – we wouldn’t have the haunting 1938 classic, Johnny Got His Gun, unless he had written it with a pen in his arse. (Never heard of any of these masterpieces, but then I hadn't heard of Drivel or Kevin either until today.)

xxx/ellauri436.html on line 278: In 1848, capital property was owned by less than one-tenth of the population, under whose tyrannical will the remaining nine-tenths lived like slaves. Today, global wealth is distributed extremely unequally. The poorest half of the world¨s population owns just 2% of the total net wealth, while the richest half owns 98%.

The prolific British composer behind "Cats," "Phantom of the Opera," and "Jesus Christ Superstar," built a billion-dollar fortune off blockbuster musicals. But Sir Paul McCartney was the richest musician in the United Kingdom and Ireland in 2022.
