If more people were like this... (quote from Elizabeth Taylor)

[Lucinda]

"...I call upon you to draw from the depths of your being to prove that we are a human race. To prove that our love outweighs our need to hate. That our compassion is more compelling than our need to blame. That our sensitivity to those in need is stronger than our greed. That our ability to reason overcomes our fear. And that at the end of each of our lives, we can look back and be proud that we have treated others with the kindness, dignity and respect that every human being deserves..."

10. It really isn't.

I wish that sentiment was more present here at DU somtimes. For some of us DU is an island of sanity in our lives...I hate the infighting.
