 A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

Man can be the most affectionate and altruistic of creatures, yet he's potentially more vicious than any other. He is the only one who can be persuaded to hate millions of his own kind whom he has never seen and to kill as many as he can lay his hands on in the name of his tribe or his God. 

-Benjamin Spock, pediatrician and author (2 May 1903-1998)
