flagrant, adj. I would be standing right there, and you would walk out of the bathroom without putting the cap back on the toothpaste.

Much can and must be done by governments, but they cannot of themselves change lives.

Jonathan Sacks

The subject of history is the life of peoples and of humanity. To catch and pin down in words--that is, to describe directly the life, not only of humanity, but even of a single people, appears to be impossible.

It is harder to crack prejudice than an atom.

Albert Einstein

Duke Ellington
