"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over..."
"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt...If the game runs sometime against us at home, we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake."

~~Thomas Jefferson

Mr. Jefferson knew what he was talking about, didn't he?

That is so very appropriate!

9. I have never let a witch reign over me.

One of the reasons I don't have beer and travel money, although I will have beer and travel money and many experiences.

They are not powerful, just keep breaking the spells. Truth and light does that easily.



And keep charging from the gate with the better energies of the better ideals.
