ME, DEFINED:
"Martin Amis recalls that when he went out to Cyprus to be best man at Hitchens' first wedding in 1980, he would spend his mornings lazing by the pool, whereas The Hitch would appear mid-morning in a suit and go straight to the bar to find someone to argue with. He won't allow anything to interfere with a good argument; that's why he sits down to meals and then never eats them. He admits that, 'Between talking and eating it would be a hard day in hell before I would eat rather than talk.'"
-From The Guardian on Christopher Hitchens' new book
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
-The Dutch Ten Commandments to Foil the Nazis
