To all the unheard wisdom in the schoolyard,
You think you're the right ones.
You think you're the charmed ones, I'm sure.
And how can you go on with such conviction?
And who do you think you are? Why do you question me? (Alanis Morissette)

To all the unheard wisdom in the schoolyard, You think you're the right ones. You think you're the charmed ones, I'm sure. And how can you go on with such conviction? And who do you think you are? Why do you question me?

Alexei Navalny

A city is a place where there is no need to wait for next week to get the answer to a question, to taste the food of any country, to find new voices to listen to and familiar ones to listen to again.

Margaret Mead

Here dead we lie because we did not choose To live and shame the land from which we sprung. Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose; But young men think it is, and we were young.
