The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

What sort of internship are you looking for?

Also, don't lose hope. Last summer I thought I'd never get an internship, but I eventually found someone who would take me.

Basically anything train-related at this point. The end goal will probably require a master's anyway.

Thank you! This is so good. I know I baked this yesterday for Conch Kingdom's birthday, but I think you'll like it. It's strawberry cake! If you eat it with a spoon, it's a nice, refreshing ice cream cake, but if it's to cold for a flaming fox like you, just use a fork and it's a normal cake again!
