Barn Burning by William Faulkner
"Read with the Short Story Club.

This is another famous and excellent short story by Faulkner . It is about, you guessed it, a burning barn. Also, about fathers and sons, revenge and class differences. All packed in 18 pages.

Funny fact, I've been running away from Faulkner but I've read at least two retelling after his work. Well, I am not running anymore. I am planning to finally read The Sound and The Fury this year. "

“ To deny that there are sorrows and rewards after death is to deny the existence of God; since God exists, it must be necessarily so. But only God could know the punishments meted out to the guilty, or the place that holds them. All the catalogues made herebefore are only the fruit of a more or less disordered imagination. Theologians should leave to the poets the depiction of Hell, and not themselves seek to frighten minds with hideous paintings and appalling books. †— Jacques Collin de Plancy

Under the Rockets' Glow by Roman Sandler
"How disgusting do you have to be. Glorifying zionism and ethnic cleansing. Isreal has occupied palastine since 1948, you have no right to take other peoples homes and brutally murder them. Thousands of children dead in less than 200 days. Ceasefire now"
