"It’s a wonder I haven’t abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

It’s utterly impossible for me to build my life on a foundation of chaos, suffering and death. I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness, I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too, I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more." - Anne Frank
I believe people are truly good, but life can make good people bad. Like I said, I am a deist, I believe in a creator, but I find it hard to believe Ken Lay will ever really face any justice. Nothing I have seen in life makes me believe that there is any true justice in the world. The fact is people's lives were ruined by Ken Lay and he didn't seem to care one bit.
