Quotation of the Day for December 21, 2010



"Foreign religion, to go by the competing ecclesiastical buildings on the hilltops, was like an applied and contagious illness, curing nothing, giving no final answers, keeping everyone in a state of nerves, fighting wrong battles, narrowing the mind."

- V.S. Naipaul, from The Masque of Africa: Glimpses of African Belief.
