Seeking for intimacy at any level--with God or with persons--is not a venture that gets the support of many people. Intimacy is not good for business. It is inefficient, it lacks 'glamour.' If God can be reduced to a ritualized hour of worship, if love of another can be reduced to an act of sexual intercourse, then routines are simple and the world can be run efficiently. But if we will not settle for the reduction of love to lust and of faith to ritual, and run through the streets asking for more, we will most certainly disturb the peace and be told to behave ourselves and go back to the homes and churches where we belong. But if the costs are considerable, the rewards are magnificent, for in relationship with another and with the God who loves us we complete the humanity for which we were created.

Soundtrack Music from Hostel: Part II - Synecku Synecku
I find it so ironic that I love this song from a horror movie, but so be it. This is from the scene when Stewart (Roger Bart) and Todd (Richard Burgi) finally take their turns at the torture factory. The melody is so beautiful and haunting.
Soundtrack Music from Wag the Dog
I just love the background music by Mark Knopfler. It's Track 2: Working On It.
