...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

Jeffers, Meditation On Saviors

My old-fashioned conviction -- notwithstanding TV talkers and the other big megaphones for blasting out propaganda messages -- is that democracy begins simply enough in human conversation. People talking with one another about their condition, asking themselves what might be done to change things. Does that seem too simple and corny to be true? I believe it anyway.
