    I see the state of all of us who live, nothing more than phantoms or a weightless shadow.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)

    The chemistry of dissatisfaction is as the chemistry of some marvelously potent tar. In it are the building stones of explosives, stimulants, poisons, opiates, perfumes and stenches.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
