“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.” – Harry S. Truman

From my email inbox:
After a Southern man moved from Atlanta to a New Jersey suburb, a
fellow passenger on a train asked how he liked it in the country.
“It was difficult at first,” the man replied, “but it’s a lot better since I
got myself a paramour.”
The passenger was astonished. “A paramour?” he said. “Does your wife
know?”
“Sure”, said the Southerner. “She doesn’t care how I cut the grass.”
