are all so improbable.

Faith so that you can believe,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
Love to complete your life.

but it is a quiet voice.

and the fear-based advice
your neighbors are so willing to give you.

Anger and Danger are intimately intertwined.
An angry person is a dangerous person,
whether that person crosses our path
or whether the angry person is ourself.

when we believe we are in danger -
we tend to exhibit anger as well as fear.
We look for someone to blame for the dangerous situation,
and direct our anger toward them.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

people of different faiths in Lake Wobegon,

There's no bond between people that's quite so strong as
when people each feel slightly superior towards the other one.
