	"Alas for those shameless ones who, in the name of expediency, oppress humanity and extend amorality. I do not see that such actions have gained you either pleasure or joy." -- Aryasura, The Marvellous Companion
	Now as through this world I ramble I see lots of funny men Some will rob you with a six gun And some with a fountain pen. But as through your life you travel As through your life you roam You won't never see an outlaw Drive a family from their home. -- Woody Guthrie, "Pretty Boy Floyd"
