All the evidence of history suggests that man is indeed a rational animal, but with a near infinite capacity for folly.... He draws blueprints for Utopia, but never quite gets it built. In the end he plugs away obstinately with the only building material really ever at hand—his own part comic, part tragic, part cussed, but part glorious nature.
Robert McNamara
Quote of the day
