"And worst of all," he continued sadly, "there's nothing for
me to do, nowhere I'd care to go, and hardly anything worth
seeing." He punctuated this last thought with such a deep
sigh that a house sparrow singing nearby stopped and rushed
home to be with his family.
-- Norton Juster, _The Phantom Tollbooth_

rlcarr (Rich Carreiro):
``In my view, government can never have a compelling interest in
discriminating on the basis of race in order to make up for past
racial discrimination in the opposite direction.
Individuals who have been wronged by unlawful racial
discrimination should be made whole; but under our Constitution
there can be no such thing as either a creditor or debtor race.
To pursue the concept of racial entitlement -- even for the most
admirable and benign of purposes -- is to reinforce and preserve for
future mischief the way of thinking that produced race slavery,
race privilege and race hatred.
In the eyes of government, we are just one race here. It is
American.''
-- Justice Antonin Scalia
