"for a moment or two, everything came into sharp focus for anyone still interested in observing what is observable."
"simply witnessing to truth leaves truth & decency on the table by itself, & forces a reaction from indecent liars to get indecent lies on the table—a reaction that exposes in what direction indecent liars align themselves."
