 | Truth of the Ancients I read a quote just a few minutes ago, and was struck silly by the simple truth of it. These words were uttered around two millennia ago by a fellow named Tacitus... Old things are always in good repute, present things in disfavor. Just a little something to mull over.   "Peace is not the absence of war. It is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence and justice." -Baruch Spinoza |
