I have always been among those who believed that the greatest freedom of speech was the greatest safety, because if a man is a fool, the best thing to do is to encourage him to advertise the fact by speaking. It cannot be so easily discovered if you allow him to remain silent and look wise, but if you let him speak, the secret is out and the world knows that he is a fool. So it is by the exposure of folly that it is defeated; not by the seclusion of folly, and in this free air if free speech men get into that sort of communication with one another which constitutes the basis of all common achievement.~Woodrow Wilson. "The Quick Comradeship of Letters", May 10, 1919.

I like deadlines. I like the "whooshing" sound they make as they fly by.

Re: Quote of the day
There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know.
