Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.
I can't even think of anything to say...

My favourite Charlton Heston moment. Rough quotes.
"During your time in England, you must have noticed the differences between the police here and in America. So what do you think of the English bobby, Charlton?"
"Your long career has overlapped with other famous actors, like Nicholson. Have you ever worked with Jack, Charlton?"
"I understand that you like art, especially paintings of the weather. What do you think of Cezanne, Charlton?"

The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter; the rain may enter; but the King of England cannot enter – all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement! - William Pitt the Elder
Very sad news. A film wasn't an Epic unless Mr Heston was in it.
He once said that he had lived enough for two lives. That's not a bad claim to be able to make.

Ma man Charlton.

Dammit, I really like Heston. :(
His Long John Silver imitation was fantastic.
Hammer, anvil, forge and fire, chase away The Hoofed Liar. Roof and doorway, block and beam, chase The Trickster from our dreams.Vigilance is our shield, that protects us from our squalid past. Knowledge is our weapon, with which we carve a path to an enlightened future.

RIP, Charlton Heston.
I believe in a society without rules, laws and regulations. A society where there are only ideas - strict ideas that must be followed to by the letter - and any failure to comply is punishable by death. This would be no dictatorship or police state, no one would be living in terror. It would merely be a 'reassessment of one's preferences,' people living in 'not-so-optimistic security.' So, welcome, those who are 'longing to be blindly obedient and loyal, unbeknownst to them.'

Charlton Heston
I saw that on the news shortly after they announced it. Didn't realize he was in his 80's, not that I was keeping track. Had a lot of really good movies.
Rest in peace Chuck.

Thanks, Heston-sama.

Be intent on loyalty
While others aspire to perform meritorious services
Concentrate on purity of intent
While those around you are beset by egoism
