Because I worked???? Maybe you should try it.

You must be thinking of a mighty needle. However, it is most likely a typo, as the Greek words for "camel" and "rope" are only one letter different, and a rope makes a lot more sense.

Is this only about religion? Or is that just another bug hunt?

"The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest possible amount of feathers with the smallest amount of hissing."

Jean Batiste Colbert, Minister of Finance to Louis XIV

“Organisation doesn’t really accomplish anything. Plans don’t accomplish anything, either. Theories of management don’t much matter. Endeavours succeed of fail because of the people involved. Only by attracting the best people will you accomplish great deeds.”

Colin Powell, former US Secretary of State.

'I not only intend to remain a free person but will do everything in my power to ensure that my children remain free.'

'I will also be a promoter of liberty everywhere.'

'That these stands, once common, and the people who make them are now readily labeled 'controversial' or worse only makes the case for a book like this stronger...'
