Random quote of the day:

“Few Americans are educated in the ways government works—or does not work—and our passivity, our downright apathy, in the face of the headlong retreat from democracy in this country makes us wonder if perhaps the late Max Lerner was not right: We are a civilization in decline without ever having reached its zenith.”

—Edward Albee, “Humans: the artsy animals,” Los Angeles Times, May 30, 2006

Random quote of the day:


"It's true that Sloth is one of the seven deadly sins. But I'd like to point out that, by indulging in Sloth, you're pretty safe from the other six. I mean, who wants to run around being wrathful all the time? That's just exhausting. And it's pretty much required that you give up any desire for money or power (Greed) or to be more important or attractive than others (Pride) if you want to spend all day watching the Cartoon Network."

—Kristopher Reisz
