quotation of the week
«the mind of this country, taught to aim at low objects, eats upon itself.»
~ralph waldo emerson, 1837
i'm just sick of the anti-intellectualism, the culture of the lowest common denominator, the irrationality and theism rampant in America.
please do not miss susan jacoby's The Dumbing Of America.
