"The whole thing is so patently infantile, so foreign to reality, that to anyone with a friendly attitude to humanity it is painful to think that the great majority of mortals will never be able to rise above this view of life."

i think the most disappointing aspect of america is the great potential and expectations with its creation and yet the failure that is the current american state. nothing is more depressing to see a seemingly wonderful and free country controlled by the demagagues of religion and money. i deplore the ignorance and bigotry that prevails from the poverty, miseducation, and complete lack of rationality of the unwashed masses in this soon to be forgotten country. sometimes you turn into what you hate.
