• A drone strike is a terror weapon, we don't talk about it that way. It is; just imagine you are walking down the street and you don't know whether in 5 minutes there is going to be an explosion across the street from some place up in the sky that you can't see. Somebody will be killed, and whoever is around will be killed, maybe you'll be injured if you're there. That is a terror weapon. It terrorizes villages, regions, huge areas. It's the most massive terror campaign going on by a long shot.

• Oh, the holiness of always being the injured party. The historically oppressed can find not only sanctity but safety in the stateof victimization. When access to a better life has been denied often enough, and successfully enough, one can use the rejection as an excuse to cease all efforts. After all, one reckons, "they" don't want me, "they" accept their own mediocrity and refuse my best, "they" don't deserve me.

• El infierno del sufrimiento humano, del mal y de la opresión está empedrado de buenas intenciones. Los hombres que más han herido y oprimido a la humanidad, que más profundamente han pecado contra ella, eran, según sus criterios y su conciencia, hombres buenos; lo que había de malo en ellos, lo que causaba maldad moral y crueldad, traición a la verdad y al progreso, no estaba en absoluto en sus intenciones, en su propósito, en su carácter personal, sino en sus opiniones.

• John Kerry se cayó de la bicicleta el fin de semana. Salió a dar un paseo el domingo por la tarde y se cayó delante de los medios de comunicación. Por suerte, su pelo amortiguó la caída, así que no es tan grave. ... Afortunadamente, el senador Kerry no resultó herido de gravedad.
