Eclectic

Be mindful of the Logical Fallacies.

When enlisting proxy's honor yourself and qualify them.

If you ask direct questions respond in kind.

Qualifying ones self as obtuse will not excuse duplicity.

Choosing doesn't preclude choice.

Those who speak of omissions have omitted.

Don't speak if you don't want your words spoken.

Don't write if you don't want your words read.

When you ask for privacy expect an audience.

If you sue for peace expect war.

When you strive for humility it may be construed as vanity.

Suffer not bigotry even from within ones own.

Hate brings vengeance invest in neither.

Have faith in your convictions and speak them plainly.

Do not emulate that which you abhor.

The wisdom of the crowd isn't always wise...
