Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Some people displease with merit, and others' very faults and defects are pleasing.

Old age is a tyrant, who forbids, under pain of death, the pleasures of youth.

Perfect courage is to do without witnesses what one would be capable of doing with the world looking on.

It is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt, when they degenerate into a populace, that they are incapable of exercising their sovereignty.

I generally don't follow domestic news that much aside from how it relates to the stories I'm covering abroad, like what Americans think of the War in Afghanistan.

When I think about greatness I just know Ayrton Senna. He was great.
