Thoughts for today:
The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by
the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different
ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself
a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and
permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries which result gradually
incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute
power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing
faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this
disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of public liberty.
--- From George Washington's Farewell Address, 1796
Be a nuisance where it counts. Do your part to inform and stimulate the public
to join your action. Be depressed, discouraged, and disappointed at failure and
the disheartening effects of ignorance, greed, corruption and bad politics — but
never give up.
--- Marjory Stoneman Douglas (1890 - 1998)
