If a man is not afraid of the bull and fights, that is nothing special.

If a man is afraid of the bull and fights anyway, that is courage.

I find a measure of comfort in the hope that unlike his predecessor, this president has the courage, the character and the judgment to make his decisions based on the best possible information and advice available to him. There are no guarantees he will make the right choice, or even the best choice. But I am hopeful that when the moment comes for him to decide the course he will take, he will make that choice with his eyes wide open. That is the most anyone can do when facing an uncertain future full of bad choices.

"The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them,
but to be indifferent to them; that's the essence of inhumanity."

-- George Bernard Shaw, The Devil's Disciple, Act II

For starters, I am not the Henry Porter who writes for the Observer in Britain. I'm a native New Yorker living in Maryland. I used to believe knowledge was power. Now I know knowledge translated into action is power.
