hindmost (Brian R. Murphy):
In modern times, however, this conception vanished and was replaced by
the illusory idea of freedom as subjective arbitrariness which does
not acknowledge a norm, a law from beyond. There ensues a relativism
which does not acknowledge absolute ethical demands and absolute
truths. The end of this development is nihilism.
- Rudolf Bultmann

According to our Israeli intermediaries, we were "dealing with the
most radical elements [in Iran]...." (Israeli counterterrorism expert
Amiram Nir to George Bush, 7/24/86)

nlgilman (Nancy L Gilman):
When Loie Fuller's Chinese dancers enwound
A shining web, a floating ribbon of cloth,
It seemed that a dragon of air
Had fallen amoung the dancers, had whirled them round
Or hurried them off on its own furious path;
So the Platonic Year
Whirls out the new right and wrong,
Whirls in the old instead;
All men are dancers and their tred
Goes to the barbarous clangor of a gong.
Part II of Nineteen Hundred and Nineteen by W. B. Yeats

reuven (Reuven M Lerner):
To get through the work which is (of course) _all_ due tomorrow.
Such is life.
