Idiocy trembles in my shadow...
"When someone is 55% right, that's very good and there's no use wrangling. And if someone is 60% right, it's wonderful, it's great luck, and let him thank God. But what's to be said about 75% right? Wise people say this is suspicious. Well, and what about 100% right? Whoever says he's 100% right is a fanatic, a thug, and the worst kind of rascal"
An Old Jew of Galicia
Quoted in The Captive Mind, by Czeslaw Milosz

About Me
- cryptic_philosopher
- I enjoy a good debate about current events. Do not call me "conservative" or "liberal," as those words have no meaning to me. I welcome all views here and only have one rule: if you disagree with what I say and feel a need to comment, please comment on what I say, not on who or what you think I am. This country is going somewhere in a handbasket, to be sure, in large part because people who disagree on important (and not-so-important) issue cannot discuss said issues like adults, without resort to insults and name-calling. I would very much like to provide hope that we can get out of the handbasket.
