"But if thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought." --George Orwell *** "A word to the wise is infuriating" --Hunter S. Thompson *** "Culture is the arts elevated to a set of beliefs." --Tom Wolfe *** "Conventional journalism could no more reveal this war than conventional firepower could win it." --Michael Herr *** "I write entirely to find out what I'm thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear." --Joan Didion ] --- ©The Inkwell 2007
