Paraphrased from George Carlin
Mar. 18th, 2003 12:35 pmI think he said it something like this:
"Save the planet? Gimme a break. The planet's gonna keep on going LONG after we're all dead and gone. Now the PEOPLE on the planet, that's a whole other story..."
I hope that this period in history goes down something like the Spanish-American War. Not a proud moment in American history, and in hindsight, the history books recognized it as such, but given time, the world changed, the country changed, and the rift was healed.
Took the better part of a century, of course.
Close entry.
