ckclark (Calvin Clark):
Obligatory dated lyrics...
Russians
--------
In Europe and America, there's a growing feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets
Mr. Krushchev said we will bury you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too
How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy
There is no monopoly of common sense
On either side of the political fence
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too
There is no historical precedent
To put words in the mouth of the president
There's no such thing as a winnable war
It's a lie we don't believe anymore
Mr. Reagan says we will protect you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us me and you
Is that the Russians love their children too

jcbourne (Julie Bourne):
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun,
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence
And nothing ever could
For all those born underneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star .. like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are .. how fragile we are...
"Fragile", Sting

DRAGON? WHAT DRAGON?
In Heritage Dwarfstar's Dragon Rage, it is possible to suffer no harm
whatsoever if a dragon falls from 200 feet and lands on you.

therese (Therese):
Despair is the absolute extreme of self-love. it is reached when
a man deliberately turns his back on all help from anyone else
in order to taste the rotten luxury of knowing himself to be lost.
...But a man who is truly humble cannot despair, because in the humble
man there is no longer any such thing as self-pity.
- Thomas Merton
