There are no self-proclaimed villains, only regiments of self-proclaimed saints. Victorious historians rule where good or evil lies."

"...It goes up, it goes down, it goes up, it goes down; No body ****ing knows why it happens! And I know this... because I took Economics. And I'd explain it to you, but I flunked that course. Not my fault, they taught it at 8 o'clock in the morning. And there, is absolutely nothing that you can learn out of one bloodshot eye. After I Flunked the first two tests, I grabbed the professor by the throat and said "Why are you teaching this **** at this ungodly hour?! Are you trying to keep this stuff a Secret?!"
-Lewis Black, on Early classes and the economy
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.
We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragments huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.
