“You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche


This is one of those rare quotes - for me anyway- that actually flirts with being a truism.  The 'only way' has been a concept I have railed against since I was old enough to know what a concept was.  It began, of course, with religion and, eventually, made its way into my political views.  The last election was rife with the notion that each side was in possession of the 'only way' to proceed.  Our country is in its current state because there are to many people out there that believe they are in possession of the 'only way'.  We are tearing each other apart, quite simply, because we cannot, or will not, agree to disagree!
