Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform. Whenever you have an efficient government you have a dictatorship. Wherever a set of alternative possible routes toward achieving a given end presents itself, a student movement will tend to choose the one which involves a higher measure of violence or humiliation directed against the older generation.

Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing people is wrong. Fiction, after all, has to make sense.
