Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool.

To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery. Octavia Butler

Cheers --(Signed)Kurt Vonnegut Kurt Vonnegut
