Quotation of the Day for April 3, 2012
"This book names that root. It aims to inspire 'rootstrikers.' The root--not the single cause of everything that ails us, not the one reform that would make democracy hum, but instead, the root, the thing that feeds the other ills, and the thing that we must kill first."
- Lawrence Lessig, from his 2011 book Republic, Lost: How Money Corrupts Congress - and a Plan to Stop It.
