"To Yossarian, the idea of pennants as prizes was absurd. No money went with them, no class privileges. Like Olympic medals and tennis trophies, all they signified was that the owner had done something of no benefit to anyone more capably than everyone else."
-Joseph Heller,
"Catch-22"

"Beer commercials usually show big men, manly men, doing manly things: 'You've just killed a small animal. It's time for a light beer.' Why not have a realistic beer commercial, with a realistic thing about beer, where someone goes, 'It's 5:00 in the morning. You've just pissed on a dumpster. It's Miller time.'"
-Robin Williams,
"A Night at the Met" (1986)

Psalm 97:1
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.

There is no cause for fear once we believe in this blessed scripture. On earth, the LORD's power as readily controls the rage of the wicked as the rage of the sea. His love as easily refreshes the poor with mercy as the earth with showers. Majesty gleams in flashes of fire amid the tempest's horrors, and the glory of the LORD is seen in its grandeur. In all our conflicts and tribulations, we may behold the hand of the divine King. In hell, evil spirits recognize with misery His undoubted supremacy. When permitted to roam abroad, it is with a chain at their heel. Death's darts are under the LORD's lock, and the grave's prisons have divine power as their warden. The terrible vengeance of the Judge of all the earth makes fiends cower and tremble, even as dogs in the kennel fear the hunter's whip. In heaven, none doubt the sovereignty of the eternal King, but all fall on their faces to do Him homage. Angels are His courtiers, the redeemed are His favorites, and all delight to serve Him day and night. May we soon reach the city of the great King.
~Charles Haddon Spurgeon, Morning and Evening
