    About the same time as Quebec.
    “Democracy is also a form of worship. It is the worship of Jackals by Jackasses. It is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”
    H.L. Mencken

    "The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."
    H. L. Mencken

    You can check out here but you can never leave.





    On a dark desert highway
    Cool wind in my hair
    Warm smell of colitas
    Rising up through the air
    Up ahead in the distance
    I saw a shimmering light
    My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
    I had to stop for the night



    There she stood in the doorway
    I heard the mission bell
    And I was thinkin' to myself
    'This could be heaven or this could be hell
    Then she lit up a candle
    And she showed me the way
    There were voices down the corridor
    I thought I heard them say



    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Such a lovely face
    Plenty of room at the Hotel California
    Any time of year (any time of year)
    You can find it here


    Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
    She got the Mercedes bends, uh
    She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
    That she calls friends
    How they dance in the courtyard
    Sweet summer sweat
    Some dance to remember
    Some dance to forget



    So I called up the Captain
    "Please bring me my wine"
    He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since 1969"
    And still those voices are calling from far away
    Wake you up in the middle of the night
    Just to hear them say



    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Such a lovely face
    They livin' it up at the Hotel California
    What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
    Bring your alibis



    Mirrors on the ceiling
    The pink champagne on ice
    And she said, "We are all just prisoners here of our own device"
    And in the master's chambers
    They gathered for the feast
    They stab it with their steely knives
    But they just can't kill the beast



    Last thing I remember
    I was running for the door
    I had to find the passage back
    To the place I was before
    "Relax", said the night man
    "We are programmed to receive
    You can check out any time you like
    But you can never leave"



    We are all travelers through this world
    Birth till Death
    We travel between the Eternities. Robert Duval as Print Ritter "The Broken Trail"
