| If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen. ~Henry David Thoreau |

| Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without perjudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs.

| "At some ideas you stand perplexed, especially at the sight of human sins, uncertain whether to combat it by force or by human love. Always decide, 'I will combat it with human love.' If you make up your mind about that once and for all, you can conquer the whole world. Lovin humility is a terrible force; it is the strongest of all things and there is nothing like it." ~Fyodor Dostoevsky |
