Not by lamentations and mournful chants ought we to celebrate the funeral of a good man, but by hymns; for, ion ceasing to be numbered with mortals, he enters upon the heritage of a diviner life. Since he is gone where he feels no pain, let us not indulge in too much grief. The soul is incapable of death. And he, like a bird not long enough in his cage to become attached to it, is free to fly away to a purer air.... Since we cherish a trust like this, let our outward actions be in accord with it, and let us keep our hearts pure and our minds calm. Mestrius Plutarchus		Thursday Apr 25, 2024

Politics is for people who have a passion for changing life but lack a passion for living it.

What is politics, after all, but the compulsion to preside over property and make other peoples' decisions for them?
