"If there's not going to be any investigation into these human rights abuses,

My writing is mostly casual. I rarely spell check, or spend very little time developing journal entries. Most subjects are of a personal nature, though frequently they overlap subjects that touch all people, as anyone's writings often do.

"There are inevitably more than enough words. You record them in your marvelous memory even now. And someday, my journals will be discovered--more words. I warn you that you read my words at your peril. The wordless movement of terrible events lies just below the surface. Be deaf! You do not need to hear or, hearing, you do not need to remember. How soothing it is to forget. And how dangerous!"
-The God Emperor Leto (F. Herbert, God Emperor of Dune)

When bad people do it they end up murders, when good people do it they end up heroes, and when the rest of us do it we end up looking like total idiots. But when's that ever stopped us?" -I. Banks
