Wednesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Ravi Zacharias, David Harsanyi, Matt Walsh, and more.

Insight: “I am absolutely convinced that meaninglessness does not come from being weary of pain; meaninglessness comes from being weary of pleasure. And that is why we find ourselves emptied of meaning with our pantries still full.” ―Ravi Zacharias

Observations: “We’re often lectured that killing an unborn baby is a decision made solely by a woman in conjunction with her doctor. Yet taking hydroxychloroquine is apparently a joint decision between a man, his doctor, every Democrat in Congress, all the anchors on CNN, and an entire slate of New York Times op-ed columnists.” —David Harsanyi

Inquiring minds want to know: “Why did Susan Rice need to send herself an email telling herself that Obama said the Flynn issue was being handled ‘by the book’ three different times? Is that something someone doing everything ‘by the book’ would really need to do?” —Charlie Kirk

Schoolyard insults: “Pelosi is a sick woman, she’s got a lot of problems, a lot of mental problems.” —Donald Trump responding to her calling him “morbidly obese”

Schoolyard insults II: “I didn’t know that he would be so sensitive. He’s always talking about other people’s … weight, their pounds.” —House Speaker Nancy Pelosi

For the record: “Pelosi called Trump fat. Trump said Pelosi has mental problems. Pelosi responded that Trump is too sensitive. We’re being governed by 6th graders.” —Matt Walsh

Upright: “Words have meaning, and if you don’t intend the meaning, don’t use the word.” —David French

Grand delusions: “The pandemic has unleashed familiar forces of hate, fear and xenophobia that he always flames … that have always existed in this society. But this president … has brought with [him] a new rash of racial messages, verbal and physical attacks and other acts of hate.” —Joe Biden

Reality is often disappointing: “I have known Bob Mueller for a long time. I have tremendous respect for him. I think he is just an amazing human being and public servant. He was not the man that I knew just in terms of his strength of presence [in congressional testimony], and so it was quite surprising.” —Representative Adam Schiff

This. Changes. Everything Nothing. “I will be reaching out to head of twitter about their policies being violated every day by President Tump. Hope my call is taken. Please retweet if you agree.” —MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski

And last… “Susan Rice knew exactly what she was doing. That’s why she wrote herself emails in a desperate attempt to cover her tracks.” —Senator Marsha Blackburn
