Amazing.

Why, I thought that the influx of women into management positions was
supposed to create a more nurturing environment where human need would
be put ahead of corporate greed.

"Ladies and gentlemen - let's have a round of applause for tonight's
player of the game - FRAN-CIS-CO SAN-N-N-N-TOS!
    - Brian Anthony (P.A. announcer at Grizzlie Stadium), June 11, 2004


"Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their
disposition to put moral chains upon
 their own appetites; in proportion as their love of justice is above their
rapacity; in proportion 
 as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above their vanity and
presumption; in proportion
 as they are more disposed to listen to the counsels of the wise and good,
in preference to the flattery
 of knaves.  Society cannot exist unless a controlling power upon will and
appetite be placed somewhere, 
 and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without.  It is
ordained in the eternal 
 constitution of things that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. 
Their passions forge their fetters."
     
     - Edmund Burke, Letter to a Member of the National Assembly (1791)
