What is not supposed to be my concern! First and foremost, the Good Cause, then God's cause, the cause of mankind, of truth, of freedom, of humanity, of justice; further, the cause of my people, my prince, my fatherland; finally, even the cause of Mind, and a thousand other causes. Only my cause is never to be my concern. "Shame on the egoist who thinks only of himself!"

'Here lies a wretched corpse, of wretched soul bereft;
Seek not my name. A plague consume you wicked caitiffs left!
Here lie I, Timon, who alive all living men did hate.
Pass by, and curse thy fill; but pass, and stay not here thy
gait.'

nuxiy commented on the word necrophilia
"One more of these charming diversions of ours:
Necrophilia, huh? now theres a hobby for ya. Fucking a corpse. Takes a special kind of guy, dont you think?
But it happens, it happens. More than you might think. It happens among humans. Animals dont do that. Animals dont fuck their dead.
A rat will do alot of gross things, but he will not fuck a dead rat. It wouldnt even occur to him.
Only a human being would think: to fuck someone who just died.
We must be one of the most interesting species on the planet. And then we just wonder why UFOs just land and say: "Hello""
