“There’s a cockeyed yellow poodle to the north of Conga Pooch; There’s a little hot cross bun that’s turning green; There’s a double-jointed woman doing tricks in Chu-Chin-Chow, And you’re a better man than I am, Gunga Din”. –Billy Bennett

“The burning enthusiasm, the quenchless zeal of the early church have gone, never, never to return. The ceremonies remain, but the ancient faith is fading out of the human heart. The worn-out arguments fail to convince, and denunciations that once blanched the faces of a race, excite us only in derision and disgust. As time rolls on, the miracles grow mean and small, and the evidences our fathers thought conclusive utterly fail to satisfy us”. –Robert G. Ingersoll
