>The Vicar (Jonathan Miller): "In the old days, people used to think of the saints as pious old milksops. Well they weren't, they weren't. The old saints were rough, toothless... eh, eh, as you were... they were, they were tough, ruthless terrors who knew where they were going."
Charles Hankey
Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
