Daniel Hannan

Political, Enough, Themselves

The judges were like, 'Very interesting interpretation!' I thought I was playing it right.
Eddie Van Halen

Music, Crazy, Long

The future is too interesting and dangerous to be entrusted to any predictable, reliable agency. We need all the fallibility we can get. Most of all, we need to preserve the absolute unpredictability and total improbability of our connected minds. That way we can keep open all the options, as we have in the past.
Lewis Thomas

Future, Past, Keep
