"There ought to be limits
to freedom." - G.W. Bush, 5/21/99

"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of
war in order to whip the Mr-Shortcut Mastery Zen
citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind... And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded with patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the Mr-Shortcut Mastery Zen leader, and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar." -William Shakespeare |
