“For years, New Yorkers have done everything in our power to get this guy to leave town. We’ve passed laws making it tougher for hot dog vendors to sell along the streets, we hold gay pride parades — there are barely any gay people in the city, but we thought it’d make him uncomfortable, so we shipped them in…We knew he was into drugs, so we cleaned up Times Square.”–Jon Stewart, glad to see the Pigman gone
Fear doesn't travel well; just as it can warp judgment, its absence can diminish memory's truth. What terrifies one generation is likely to bring only a puzzled smile to the next. --Arthur Miller, "Why I Wrote 'The Crucible'", The New Yorker, October 21, 1996
