Guilt makes people do the weirdest things. It must be awful to have a conscience.

The IRS! They’re like the Mafia, they can take anything they want!

There are two and only two ways that any economy can be organized. One is by freedom and voluntary choice—the way of the market. The other is by force and dictation—the way of the State.

He’s lying to me, Bree thought. I don’t know how I know, but I do. And really, wasn’t it better if she didn’t know for sure? Bree moved closer to him and pressed her mouth...
