He has no rights, no security, and little opportunity for a useful career. There is no salvation on earth outside the framework of an organized state.”
Joseph Reese Strayer, On the Medieval Origins of the Modern State“As every languageless, stateless, selfless nation has one last, twisted image of its worst and best, we have the ceilidh.

We forget our record of atrocities wherever we have been made masters and become comfortable servants again. Our present and our past creep in to change each other and we feel angry and sad and Scottish. Perhaps we feel free.”

Indeed, the belief is widespread that the Japanese can as happily do without logic now as they supposedly have for centuries past.”
