Quotes

Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.

In the beginning there was the word. The word was Jah. The word is in I,Jah is in I. I make what is good, better, and what is better, best. I,follow this in every aspect of life.

To have the truth in your possession you can be found guilty, sentenced,to death.

I am not a politician. . . I only suffer the consequences.
