Quote of the Day

My email quote-of-the-day source passes on one today that caught my fancy:

"It takes in reality only one to make a quarrel. It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favor of vegetarianism while the wolf remains of a different opinion."

- W.R. Inge (1860-1954, Dean of St. Paul's Cathedral, London, 1911-1934)

Wise words.

One of my favorites is the difference between democracy and liberty. In a democracy, two wolves and a lamb vote on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a heavily-armed lamb contestng the outcome.
