A young financial writer once brought ridicule upon himself by stating that a certain company had nothing to commend it except excellent earnings. well, there are companies whose earnings are excellent but whose stocks i would never recommend. in selecting investments, i attach prime importance to the men behind them. i'd rather buy brains and character than earnings. earnings can be good one year and poor the next. but if you put your money into securities run by men combining conspicuous brains and unimpeachable character, the likelihood is that the financial results will prove satisfactory.

If you spend your own money on yourself, you care how much you spend and how well you spend it. if you spend your own money on someone else, you care how much you spend, but you don't care how well it is spent. if you spend someone else's money on yourself, you don't care how much you spend, but you do care how well it is spent. and finally, if you spend someone else's money on someone else, you don't care how much you spend, and you don't care how well it is spent. that is government.

But the progressive conservative is very definitely liberal republican. these are people who are moderately conservative on economic matters, and in the past have been moderately liberal, even sometimes quite liberal on social policy matters.

It had been the longest time since she had had a rib-scraping laugh. she had forgotten how deep and down it could be. so different from the miscellaneous giggles and smiles she had learned to be content with these past few years.

I think the condition of imperial denial is a handicap because if you do not recognize that you are essentially performing the functions of an empire, you are incapable of learning from the mistakes of past empires.

This is the most immediate fruit of exile, of uprooting: the prevalence of the unreal over the real. everyone dreamed past and future dreams, of slavery and redemption, of improbable paradises, of equally mythical and improbable enemies; cosmic enemies, perverse and subtle, who pervade everything like the air.
