    I guess God made Boston on a wet Sunday.

    I wol bistowe the flour of al myn age
    In th’actes and in fruit of mariage.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse.... A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their own free choice—is often the means of their regeneration.
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)
