Flimsy Sanity

In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule. - Friedrich Nietzsche

Diverting attention

It was funny how Cain tried to divert attention from reports of his caddishness by breaking into gospel singing. Probably not smart to strike a religious tone and remind people that he was the evil brother. Nein Nein Nein

It is an adage that everyone who thinks they are the first to think something probably hasn't read enough. The fact that Bernie Madoff made off with rich people's money (only the special were chosen - beware when someone tells you that only smart people can belong) and Elena Bobbitt did bob it have always ammused me. I was just reading Scott Adams latest book and he mentioned the same thing with other examples.
