>You want fast? One day, nobody'd ever heard of Sarah Palin. the next day, she was named as McCain's running mate. The next day (slight, but only slight, exaggeration) there are at least 10 books on the market about her life (not counting reprints of speeches). Now that's fast - research and writing.
Or somebody in publishing with a whole lot of Palin books in the hopper got to McCain ...
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
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
