No problem! Whatever's helpful 
I love that you put up the quote by Jeffery R. Holland, it is one of my favorite quotes as well.
Oh, I meant the philosopher himself (check out "On Being and Not-being) was awesome. Plato is kind of a jerk!
Gorgias is awesome.
Thanks for the critique. I'll try to be a little less direct in the next version
