    One is never so dangerous when one has no shame, than when one has grown too old to blush.

    You're right Smithers, landing mat! &**^%+£$*(£"!
    "As we moved slowly through the outskirts of the town we passed row after row of little grey slum houses running at right angles to the embankment. At the back of one of the houses a young woman was kneeling on the stones, poking a stick up the leaden waste-pipe which ran from the sink inside and which I suppose was blocked. I had time to see everything about her - her sacking apron, her clumsy clogs, her arms reddened by the cold. She looked up as the train passed, and I was almost near enough to catch her eye." Orwell, The Road to Wigan Pier

    Strangely, this wasn't the first Olympics in which the Organising Committee had been hoist by their own petard.
    We need people who look to the stars, holding the nation and the world in their hearts but at the same time we need down-to-earth people who can do serious and trying work.

    In a definite sense, a country's power and prestige isn't only a reflection of its economic power but also a reflection of its people's quality and morality. Moreover, I think the latter is actually more important in the long-term.

    For reasons unknown, 'Mole Spearing' was dropped as an event after the 1896 Olympics.
