“It’s not just that man, supposedly the most intelligent creature in our known universe, in his greed, blind ambition and willful carelessness has chosen to destroy the perfect balance of nature on which his life depends, but he’s committed himself to obliterating intelligence altogether. We have lawmakers who prefer mythology to science, fiction to reality, faith over facts and lies versus the truth. They start wars in the names of all their gods, and wash their hands in the blood of innocents like it’s righteous water. They blatantly and proudly design laws to discriminate and denigrate those who are not like them and base it on fables. They preach hatred, intolerance, and segregation. Rather than bring man together, they want to separate and enslave him. They neither aspire nor inspire. They drag progress backward to the age of ignorance when women had no role but as servant to man, not owning their own bodies, or having choices in their life. And they smile proudly as if their stupidity were a badge of honor. Their minds are closed like steel traps and they are backed by enough money to put the worst of the worst of them in power. It’s fascism under a new banner, guaranteeing a world of suffering rather than progress. They are the cancer eating away not only at the globe we live on, but at civilization itself.”

“Everyone goes through life trying not to get in the way, staying out of the fights, ignoring what's unpleasant or uncomfortable, and the world continues devolving into a greater mess because no one wants to stand up for anything. Everyone hides in their houses, lies to avoid jury duty, lets other people vote and then complains because the world has gone crazy on them. The outcome is a world being run by insane people, and when someone smart and strong comes along to try and make sense out of the mess, he's overpowered by the noise of the screaming weirdos. No one sees or hears him. They drown him out, and the downward spiral continues.”
Dan Skinner, Xperiment
“He’d thought that sleep would elude him, but it came upon him with the suddenness of death.”
Dan Skinner, Xperiment
“How did the world get like this? How did the one creative intellect in the known universe lose its capacity for respect, compassion, and love? Everywhere”
Dan Skinner, Xperiment
“They told me how men made laws that allowed them to discriminate, segregate, and incarcerate without due process. Men are still writing those same laws today. They might wrap them in a different flag, but we can see that swastika underneath.”
Dan Skinner, Xperiment
“It got plush like velvet; every note was like it was wrapped with some beautiful bow to be delivered as a gift, and I didn’t want to stop. The”

“But it wasn’t so much a sense of choking as it was of drowning. Scary and desperate and wonderful. He allowed the waves to roll over him and carry him away to a place he’d never knew existed.”
Dan Skinner, Xperiment
“But there had to be one soul who’d find him attractive or interesting. It was said there was someone for everyone,”
