We should do well to remember both these quotes.
That sounds pretty profound for Margaret Laurence. I was surprised to see her name attached to it.
I am agreeing, no need to attack. :-)
You make me sound like some sort of rabid attack dog ;-) I don’t normally attack at all - I do point out where I think someone is mistaken, but in a civilised manner and understand that not everyone will necessarily agree with me.
I seldom do this with those who are actually agreeing ;-)

My policy too, I hope. Of course on my blog I am not at all controversial but I do sometimes land in hot water in the "comment" section, especially at James's site. Then I get on my high horse and become super polite.
A most civilized debater in my opinion and, in fact, I think he deserves a gold medal for it, is Beaman. He is a joy to watch in action.
Re Beaman. You are right there, very cool and calm.
I love both those quotes :-)
