    Re: barbarians

    I lost quite a few jobs
    because I could not hide my contempt
    for my superiors.
    It took me many years to realize
    that I have, what is known as,
    a transparent face that can be read
    like an open book.
    If you too have such a face,
    consider yourself cursed by fate,

      You cannot speak in praise of capitalism
      in a communist country and vice versa.
      It is a risky business
      discussing democracy with fascists;
      and nothing can be as hard
      as trying to reason with dupes of propaganda.
      What could be more subversive
      than a lecture on atheism in a cathedral,
      or a speech on human rights in an Armenian community center?

          Because truth is beyond men’s reach,
          they will believe in a thousand lies
          even after these lies have been exposed.

              Not just 600 years of subservience but subservience to turks! a noteworthy distinction.

                There is a Turks in all of us
                to the same degree that
                there is an Armenian in all of them.

                  Trying to reason with an Armenian?
                  A waste of time.
                  You can’t reason with someone
                  who has classified himself as infallible
                  and everyone who disagree with him
                  as a xxxx.

                    One reason I am against nationalism is that we were massacred by nationalists in the name of nationalism.

                      The Greeks did not have a word for racist or nationalist. They simply divided mankind into
                      Greeks and barbarians. But they had another word: hubris (pride or arrogance) which was
                      invariably brought low by Nemesis.In that sense, all men of faith are guilty of hubris too when they assume their faith to be the only true faith.
