Whenever governments adopt a moral tone - as opposed to an ethical one - you know something is wrong.
John Ralston SaulThe faithful witness, like...Socrates, Voltaire, and Swift and Christ himself, is at his best when he is questioning and clarifying and avoiding the specialists obsession with solution. He betrays society when he is silent...He is true to himself and to people when his clarity causes disquiet.
