    'Through the animal and vegetable kingdoms, nature has scattered the seeds of life abroad with the most profuse and liberal hand. She has been comparatively sparing in the room, and the nourishment necessary to rear them... The race of plants, and race of animals shrink under this great restrictive law. And the race of man cannot, by any efforts of reason, escape from it. Among plants and animals its effects are waste of seed, sickness, and premature death. Among mankind, misery and vice. ...
    For let the principles of Mr. Godwin's Enquiry and of other similar works be carried literally and completely into effect; let every corruption and abuse of power be entirely got rid of; let virtue, knowledge and civilization be advanced to the greatest height that these visionary reformers would suppose; let the passions and appetites be subjected to the utmost control of reason and influence of public opinion: grant them, in a word, all that they ask, and the more completely their views are realized, the sooner will they be overthrown again, and the more inevitable and fatal will be the catastrophe. For the principle of population will still prevail, and from the comfort, ease and plenty that will abound, will receive an increasing force and impetus. The number of mouths to be fed will have no limit; but the food that is to supply them cannot keep pace with the demand for it; we must come to a stop somewhere, even though each square yard, by extreme improvements in cultivation, could maintain its man. In this state of things there will be no remedy; the wholesome checks of vice and misery (which have hitherto kept this principle within bounds) will have been done away; the voice of reason will be unheard; the passions only will bear sway; famine, distress, havoc and dismay will spread around; hatred, violence, war and bloodshed will be the infallible consequence; and from the pinnacle of happiness, peace, refinement and social advantage we shall be hurled once more into a profounder abyss of misery, want, and barbarism that ever by the sole operation of the principle of population!'

    Now, can you name off all the singers? In order?

    When that song came out, I didn't know who 80 percent of those people were. I had heard the songs on the radio, but I had seen few videos.

  6. I been in a cave
    For forty days
    Only a spark
    To light my way
    I wanna give out
    I wanna give in
    This is our crime
    This is our sin

    But I still believe
    I still believe
    Through the pain
    And the grief
    Through the lies
    Through the storms
    Through the cries
    And through the wars
    Oh, I still believe

    Flat on my back
    Out at sea
    Hopin' these waves
    Don't cover me
    I'm turned and tossed
    Upon the waves
    When the darkness comes
    I feel the grave

    But I still believe
    I still believe
    Through the cold
    And the heat
    Through the pain
    And through the tears
    Through the crowds
    And through the cheers
    Oh, I still believe

    I'll march this road
    I'll climb this hill
    Down on my knees if I have to
    I'll take my place
    Up on this stage
    I'll wait 'til the end of time
    For you like everybody else

    I'm out on my own
    Walkin' the streets
    Look at the faces
    That I meet
    I feel like I like I want to go home
    What do I feel
    What do I know

    But I still believe
    I still believe
    Through the shame
    And through the grief
    Through the heartache
    Through the years
    Through the waiting
    Through the years

    For people like us
    In places like this
    We need all the hope
    We can get
    Oh, I still believe

    As I walk through
    This wicked world
    Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity.
    I ask myself
    Is all hope lost?
    Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?

    And each time I feel like this inside,
    There's one thing I wanna know:
    What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
    What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?

    And as I walked on
    Through troubled times
    My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
    So where are the strong
    And who are the trusted?
    And where is the harmony?
    Sweet harmony.

    'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away, just makes me wanna cry.
    What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
    What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?
