I thought I would share a quote with everyone that I came across during some reading today. It made me think of Turf Wars, believe it or not:

"If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?"

---Solzhenitsyn

It's just bizarre how Turf Wars is creeping into just about every line of thinking I tend to engage in these days...

Cheers!

Your pal,

Ah yes, the truth of the quote really hit me: As we chip away at CMS in the South, we (in some measure) cut away a little bit of ourselves. Sad, cathartic, a bit of fun perhaps -- call it what you want. I'm still down for the fight because we will end up better allies for it...
