Quotes:

Pithy thoughts on courage, liberty, and responsibility...

    By Jack Grant

....since I'm far too tired to write coherently, quotes:

The courage to be is the courage to accept oneself, in spite of being unacceptable.
   -Paul Tillich

Liberty means responsibility; that is why most men dread it.
   -George Bernard Shaw

Well done, even though you wore yourself out on vacation. Seems like you've been gone a whole year! I'm glad you are back, Jack.

BTW, I've been wondering what it is you know so much about Keanu Reeves???

I'm off to sleep myself---

We don't handle randomness well.
   -Dr. Lucy Jones


Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.

What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
   -Dandemis

Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
