Upright: “The notion that Nature is ‘having her revenge’ or anything of the kind is absolutely pagan. Nature has always been both sustaining and incredibly dangerous.

For the record: “No amount of bailout dollars will stimulate an economy that is being strangled by quarantine. It is not a lack of money that plagues us but a lack of commerce.” —Sen. Rand Paul

I’m starting to think that these characters who support Trump might be suicidal. They seem to fight hardest for the things that will kill them.” —Jimmy Kimmel

Alpha jackass, part II: “They want guns. They want pollution. I figured it out: They want to die and they’re taking us down with them.” —Jimmy Kimmel

And last… “I keep hearing in the media about ‘non-essential businesses.’ Is the media ‘essential’? Why haven’t we had a media shutdown during this crisis?” —Dinesh D'Souza
