“If we're all going to hell in a handbasket, we might as well make it a party on the way down”
“The first principle of freedom is the right to go to hell in your own handbasket.”
“If we're going to make mistakes anyway, we might as well learn from them -- "teachable moments".”
“That's what we're all doing, all the time, whether we know it or not. Whether we like it or not. Creating something on the spur of the moment with the materials at hand. We might just as well let the res tof it go, join the party, and dance our hearts out.”
“And if the world went to hell in a handbasket-as it seemed to be doing-you could say good-bye to everyone and retreat to your land, hunkering down and living off it.”
“Life may not be the party we hoped for... but while we're here we may as well dance.”
