"We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be."
Kurt vonnegut
This worries me, since I'm running a Vampire Sabbat game right now and the group is a bunch of murder hobos.
That reminds me of the Simpson's and the hobo on the train. "I'm not a stabbing hobo, I'm a singing hobo". (Starts singing): I'm livin' the hobo life, stabbin' people with my hobo knife. Hilarious!
Bessie Braddock MP: “Winston, you are drunk, and what’s more you are disgustingly drunk.”
Winston Churchill: “Bessie, my dear, you are ugly, and what’s more, you are disgustingly ugly. But tomorrow I shall be sober and you will still be disgustingly ugly.
Well plastic surgery does wonders nowadays... it also creates horrors escaped from the Great Beyond, expelled by the Great Old ones themselves for being too horrifying, but that's a topic for other thread
The romantic contrast between modern industry that “destroys nature” and our ancestors who “lived in harmony with nature” is groundless. Long before the Industrial Revolution, Homo sapiens held the record among all organisms for driving the most plant and animal species to their extinctions. We have the dubious distinction of being the deadliest species in the annals of life.

I think Lovecraft could have written a great story about "The Escapee from the Plastic Surgery Clinic"!
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.
― Ian Fleming, (Goldfinger)
Fun fact, Ian Fleming, Roald Dahl and Christopher Lee were all a part of the same British super spy group in WW2. Christopher Lee was actually Ian Fleming's cousin.
“I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn’t be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage.”

You can have a new year but it doesn't mean jack diddly if you don't have a new mind! I'm telling you that you can buy a new car, but if you put the old man in a new car you're still going to have the old experience. I'm telling you that a new house doesn't make a new marriage! I'm talking about a new outfit doesn't make you a new person! And if you think that you are magically going to be a new person, I hate to be the bearer of bad news because new life comes from a new mind and a new way of looking at your life!

That should keep people from marrying someone for their looks... you'll never know what your children will look like!

"Mankind will reach maturity on the day it learns to value diversity—of life and ideas. To be different is not necessarily to be ugly; to have a different idea is not necessarily to be wrong. The worst thing that could happen is for all of us to look and think and act alike. For if we cannot learn to value the small variations among our own kind here on earth, then God help us when we get out into space and meet the variations that are almost certainly out there."
The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth--that the error and truth are simply opposite. They are nothing of the sort. What the world turns to, when it is cured on one error, is usually simply another error, and maybe one worse than the first one.
-- H. L. Mencken
“It's easier to avoid the snares of love than to escape once you are in that net whose cords and knots are strong; but even so, enmeshed, entangled, you can still get out unless, poor fool, you stand in your own way.”
― Lucretius, The Way Things Are
What matters today is not the difference between those who believe and those who do not believe, but the difference between those who care and those who don't.
