The majority of those who are loosely identified by the term 'liberals' are afraid to let themselves discover that what they advocate is statism.

I love language. It doesn't bother me that its effects are partial. To me that is very sanity-producing.

The capacity to create [visual] effects in the computer has made the job easier, but it has also introduced the complexity that you can with a few more keystrokes generate such a busy canvas that the eye doesn't know where to go.
