AN ARMENIAN STORY
*****************************
They asked the village idiot to translate the braying of an ass, and when he did, the villagers were divided between those who believed him and those who did not. There were no survivors.

A man with a heavy burden of guilt is safer to deal with than a man who is innocent by reason of insanity or absence of conscience.

Like all nations we too have our share of misguided fools and criminal minds that operate on the assumption they are leaders of men.

*************************************
WHEN I WAS YOUNG
*********************************
When I was young
I had a low opinion
of myself and my fellow men.
Now that I am old
I have a lower opinion.
*
For a good number of years
Armenians in the homeland
were unanimous in their contempt for Zarian.
My only explanation:
a memo was sent out
from the headquarters of the KGB in Moscow…
*
Religions create jobs,
beginning with construction workers.

Re: crackpots

Give Armenians a superior army and an inferior enemy and watch them commit crimes against humanity, and afterwards pass a law against insulting Armenishness.

Re: crackpots

To contradict an opinion with a belief system is like trying to kill a butterfly with a sledgehammer.

Re: crackpots

I have never heard an Armenian say “I am a proud half-Armenian,” even if most Armenians are exactly that. #armenians

Re: crackpots

To say “I am a proud Armenian” amounts to rattling one's chains of subservience and degradation. #armenians

My aim in life is not to solve problems but to be readable. If I achieve that goal I may some day, if I live long enough, to stumble on a useful line.
