People are, if anything, more touchy about being thought silly than they are about being thought unjust.

The majority of the minority of the people who vote elect their politicians like they select their food,
not because it's good for you but because it looks good.

Let me see if I get this straight. You already promised to raise
my taxes if you get elected, and now you're asking me for a
donation so you can get elected ?.

The world had become an incomprehensible place. Bloody idiots like Al Gore are given Nobel prizes. Next they'll give Don Imus a humanitarian award.

I've made an odd discovery. Every time I talk to a savant I feel quite sure
that happiness is no longer a possibility. Yet when I talk with my
gardener, I'm convinced of the opposite. -Bertrand Russell, _________________ Aruba Trip Reports |

The art of government is the organization of idolatry. The bureaucracy
consists of functionaries; the aristocracy, of idols; the democracy, of
idolaters. The populace cannot understand the bureaucracy: it can only
worship the national idols.
