...bring Heaven to earth—in hoping to ameliorate theirs and every other situation needing improvement. We must recognize and respect the limits of politics, which means accounting for our own limits—of time, resources, and moral fallibility.

...always been a selfless player; a few years ago Brady took a below-market paycheck so the Pats could surround him with above-market talent. While Manning's contract is much richer - $98 million, with a whopping $34.5 million signing bonus - he restructured it this off-season to save the Colts salary cap space.
