The universe is neither benign nor hostile, merely indifferent.
Only people seeking the truth find it;
People who know the truth, never do.

Eleanor Roosevelt: The Most Beautiful Woman in the World
Because My Nana told me so. And I was reminded of something Archie Bunker said on All in the Family. In an argument with Mike the Meathead he blamed Eleanor Roosevelt for "all the problems with the blacks." He said "before she started talking about them, we didn't even know they were there!"
A Man of Peace
I was in New York City near the drug area known as Alphabet City when I saw Union Square Park. I decided to take a break. The park wasn't in the best of shape, some areas had grass nearly as tall as I was. But then I noticed something, there among the grass was a statue of Mahatma Gandhi and I wasn't afraid. Proof New York is a great city.
