Sayers
Gore Vidal quote: "The public is always relieved to find that once the chief..."
The public is always relieved to find that once the chief officers of state are elected they do not sincerely want change. Gore Vidal
There's more than one way to skin a cat, my father used to say; it bothered me, I didn't see why they would want to skin a cat even one way. Margaret Atwood
Yet even in the loneliness of the canyon I knew there were others like me who had brothers they did not understand but wanted to help.
