Don't know about Luna's.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

I see that you did not write 2016 in the traditional way. I know, it can be very hard for two-o-sixteeners to admit which year they're coming from. But there's no shame, no stigma. 2016 is just a year like any other, despite everything that happened in it.

Yet the pugnacious four time Indy 500 winner A.J. Foyt continue onwards into his 80s despite his obesity and several life-threatening incidents. He was even pronounced dead by the track doctor at Riverside in the 1960s just to be revived by Parnelli Jones.

You would have a trademark issue,

But now we can finally call prince, "the artist formerly known as prince".
