@MAKS23 The best #defence is a good #offence.

Did you know that "do you plead guilty to the charges?" was once an unlikely question to be answered?

You’ve noticed by now that more suffering is inflicted on the world by people who take offence than by people who give it. And that what we stop doing is vastly more significant than what we start doing.
