History is the fiction we invent to persuade ourselves that events are knowable and that life has order and direction. That's why events are always reinterpreted when values change. We need new versions of history to allow for our current prejudices. (Calvin and Hobbes are wise beyond their years.)
Fate is like a strange, unpopular restaurant, filled with odd waiters who bring you things you never asked for and don't always like. (Lemony Snicket)
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Champagne in one hand -- strawberries in the other screaming WOO HOO!
98% of us Americans are hard-working people. It's the other 2% that give us a bad reputation. Then again, we did elect them.
