"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

the difference between evidence and sources: whether they come from the horse's mouth or a horse's ass.
"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."
the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

Seconding ussusimiel, who is definitely a 2011-crop new member. Tip of the cap to Vraith for the nom, since the two of them have been rather like oil and water at times.

I second Horrim. As Murrin says, big player in the Last Chrons forums.I'm Murrin wrote:I'm going to throw out a nom for Horrim Carabal. Not as active as some other new members, but he's been making some good contributions to discussions in the Last Chrons forums since joining.
