You're going to be associating heavily with the Glitterati, you have about five years of socialist thought left. I wouldn't bother.


Five years is enough to get a cushy union job, if you started the union. Socialism is forever if you can make money from it.

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.

My most recent incident report I've had to kick start was a kid walking into a tree and ending up with a big knot on her forehead.

I still refuse to believe she was walking, as she claims, she had to have been running.

The same value as a cherished photograph.

That is to say, purely sentimental, I'm afraid.
