"Words had to change their ordinary meaning and to take that which was now given them. Reckless audacity came to be considered the courage of a loyal ally; prudent hesitation, specious cowardice; moderation was held to be a cloak for unmanliness; ability to see all sides of a question, inaptness to act on any. Frantic violence became the attribute of manliness"
-Thucydides
"The Saudi, Moslem Brotherhood and al Qaeda monies have cleared to your accounts. They want you to green light them to remove the intermediary Ambassador, and take down the Seal Team."
