QUOTE OF THE DAY

“Anything approaching the change that came over his features I have never seen before, and hope never to see again. Oh, I wasn’t touched. I was fascinated. It was as though a veil had been rent. I saw on that ivory face the expression of sombre pride, of ruthless power, of craven terror–of an intense and hopeless despair. Did he live his life again in every detail of desire, temptation, and surrender during that supreme moment of complete knowledge? He cried in a whisper at some image, at some vision–he cried out twice, a cry that was no more than a breath:
The horror! The horror!”

Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness

Kurtz’s last words, “the horror….the horror” .

Was it sick Africans or Imperialism ? Can it kill a country, it has before.

The City of London is still controlling the money, so maybe not. Counterpart Rome/Vatican still large and in charge and the third, DC is the military might. The horror, the horror…….it is not dead but alive.

To paraphrase Shakespeare; To fight, or not to fight, that is the question.
I read all the news and horrors that are going in the world. I read the prophecies. I watch the videos. I ask myself; can we ever fix the world? I answer myself; No!
We are torn between two things. Fight to delay the inevitable, or step back and let it all fail sooner. It seems sure that the longer we delay the world crash, the harder it will fall.

I see- So are you saying you are good with living under a totalitarian, leftist government? That is what you will most likely get….just sayin.
