Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2014-10-08:

"Our alienation from the land, our inoculation against disease, our cultivated fear of hot things, sharp things, fast things -- things, to put it another way -- have given most of us a blessed distance from the cliff's edge. But they've also made us hungry for the thrill of the waves pounding below; for experience, for the real thing, for Truth. If we don't get it, then we'll settle for Authenticity, a distant cousin of Truth who conveniently accepts Paypal." -- Hugh Laurie, from the liner notes to his album "Didn't It Rain".
