Movie Quotes – Day 229

I’m a religious man, Captain, and I believe we’ll get through if the Good Lord puts His mind to it. Of course, He’ll have to give us His undivided attention. – Operation Petticoat

“The Lord shall provide” is a common mantra among some people.  So long as the manna keeps on raining down, everything’s fine.  Problem is, it’s usually more accurate to say “The Lord takes care of those who take care of themselves”, and every so often, no matter how long the free lunches have magically arrived, they stop.  If you’re not prepared to fend for yourself, and the gravy train jumps the track, you have no business throwing your hands in the air and screaming “Why, God, Why!?”.

You aren’t a slave to be given largesse.  You aren’t a parasite to be suckled.  You are a living, breathing, embodiment of the divine light that is God.  Get off your ass and act like it.
