People are being crushed, slashed, disembowelled, mangled; their dead bodies rot and their eyes decay with the rest.

These are distressing facts; but do we enjoy life any the less because of them? Most certainly we do not.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Let be be finale of seem.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.”
