In the long term we can hope that religion will change the nature of man and reduce conflict. But history is not encouraging in this respect. The bloodiest wars in history have been religious wars.

I admire machinery as much is any man, and am as thankful to it as any man can be for what it does for us. But it will never be a substitute for the face of a man, with his soul in it, encouraging another man to be brave and true.

Susanna Clarke

When spectators and fans say about drunken brawls, violence, and dog fights, Well, football players are prone to these things - that's why we admire them, they are encouraging terribly detrimental behavior. You might even say - a la Roman gladiators - they are egging on this behavior.

Prosperity is not without many fears and distastes adversity not without many comforts and hopes.
