        @BretEastonEllis This quote digests itself. "Like everything else" in life is voluntary?? Sounds more like sniveling than deep thought.

        @BretEastonEllis Key words there - in principle. Also rather important - like everything else. I should only stop human sacrifice at MY will

        @BretEastonEllis As seen from Europe, it's surely the most lunatic of these quotes , She seems to embody all that is wrong with the US.
