HI EVERYONE! I know I said not to interrupt this thread, but I have an important announcement!

"When we fear pluralism as the enemy, succumb to the allure of a seeming emotional unity or seek to enforce a meretricious purity of cuture over rationalism and diversity, we turn cruel, whether or not we are conscious of it." Amherst President

smiley - evilgrin My (very long) random quote... Guaranteed to elicit at least on smiley - erm per convo thread smiley - laugh


Said a sheet of snow-white paper, "Pure was I created, and pure will I remain for ever. I would rather be burnt and turn to white ashes than suffer darkness to touch me or the unclean to come near me."
The ink-bottle heard what the paper was saying, and it laughed in its dark heart; but it never dared to approach her. And the multicoloured pencils heard her also, and they too never came near her.
And the snow-white sheet of paper did remain pure and chaste for ever, pure and chaste -- and empty.
- K. Gibran. Sand and Foam (1926)
