let your kids go to the movies!
get them out of the house so they wont know what youre up to
its true that fresh air is good for the body
but what about the soul
that grows in darkness, embossed by silvery images”

“As the quality of water changes with the nature of the soil;
So will a mans reason vary with the quality of his friends.”
