    And Christian hateth Mary that God kissed in Galilee,”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    “Right now I think censorship is necessary; the things they’re doing and saying in films right now just shouldn’t be allowed. There’s no dignity anymore and I think that’s very important.”

    Casey Jones, throttle in his hand,
