"You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them. There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them. "
Ray Bradbury
" I walked a while with pleasureÔÇÖ
She chatted all the way;
But she left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.
I walked a while with sorrow,
And neÔÇÖer a word said sheÔÇÖ
But oh! The things I learned from her,
When sorrow walked with me."
Robert Browning Hamilton
"No woman in a burqa (or hijab or a burkini) has ever done me any harm. But I was sacked (without explanation) by a man in a suit. Men in suits missold me pensions & endowments, costing me thousands of pounds. A man in a suit led us on a disastrous & illegal war. Men in suits led the banks & crashed the world economy. Other men in suits then increased the misery to millions through austerity. If we are to start telling people what to wear, maybe we should ban suits."

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
