A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt

A caustic observer once remarked that when Dr. Johnson spoke of patriotism as the last refuge of a scoundrel, “he was ignorant of the infinite possibility contained in the word ‘reform.'”

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)
Essay (1900-06), “Latitude and Longitude Among Reformers,” The Century Magazine, Vol. 60, No. 2

Do You Really Want to Get to Know the Villain?

I’ve been thinking about villains. I was going to specify that I mean the villains in our stories, but that wouldn’t be true. Real-life villains have been consuming my thoughts, and it took considerable mental effort to turn to fictional villains for this piece.

The Star isn't the only Sigil relegated to legend in the public eye. They say some legends are best left to history.

A history of blood they do not dare face.

Oh, and maybe, just maybe, her husband of many years might’ve liked to know she’d been hanging onto a $250 million necklace all that time? How about her granddaughter, who was caring for her? An early retirement fund, anyone?
The real villain of Titanic? Ready for it? Not Cal, not even the iceberg—it was Rose. Still love that movie, though. #titanic #movies #villain #funny

Yet, she held onto it for decades, on the off chance she’d end up at the wreck site again, just to chuck it into the ocean for no good reason… and croaks in his bed. Then goes and waltzes passed her husband in the afterlife to meet up with her 3-day fling!
Meanwhile, she conveniently leaves out the part where she let Jack—the “three-day love of her life”—freeze to death because she couldn’t scoot over a bit on the giant door. #titanic #movies #villain #funny

Maturity is realizing that in the film Titanic, Rose decides to throw away a $250 million pendant in memory of an unemployed man she slept with exactly once—a man who never even owned the necklace. She completely disregards the fact that the explorer who brought her to the wreck had built his entire career around finding that necklace. #titanic #movies #villain #funny
