Quotation of the Day for February 23, 2013"Our current royal family doesn't have the difficulties in breeding that pandas do, but pandas and royal persons alike are expensive to conserve and ill-adapted to any modern environment. But aren't they interesting? Aren't they nice to look at?" - Hilary Mantel, on the current obsession with the pregnancy of the Duchess of Cambridge. Mantel is the author of British historical fiction best known for Wolf Hall, an account of Thomas Cromwell's rise to power during rein of King Henry the VIII.
