• Que el negro marche. Que haga peregrinaciones al ayuntamiento. Que haga marchas por la libertad. Y, sobre todo, esfuércense por comprender por qué debe hacerlo.

Y esto, inevitablemente, conduciría a una espantosa pesadilla racial.

• In an effort to civilize combat sports, authorities mandated padded gloves and instantly made the sports far more savage. Granted, putting gloves on the hands seems like a nice thing to do.

• Why would you want to keep the bluebird houses mounted in a place that you now know is unsafe for them? Bluebirds are not ornaments for pictures, they are living things that deserve your best effort if you are going to be a landlord to them. There is no magic spell that will protect those bluebirds--they have to depend on you or they are doomed.
