"Be as decent as you can. Don't believe without evidence. Treat things divine with marked respect -- don't have anything to do with them. Do not trust humanity without collateral security; it will play you some scurvy trick. Remember that it hurts no one to be treated as an enemy entitled to respect until he shall prove himself a friend worthy of affection. Cultivate a taste for distasteful truths. And, finally, most important of all, endeavor to see things as they are, not as they ought to be."
~Ambrose Bierce
Do you agree or disagree?
Note: I don't always agree with every quote I post. I just aim to give you something to mull over, if only for a second.

I agree...to a degree.
