Quote of the day February 6, 2013 10:23 am Robert

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

John Rogers

                      • I do not agree with everything in most of my citations. Now show me where I've advocated indexing wages. by bowser 2013-02-09 23:27:31
