About Me

I have a burning need to know stuff and I love asking awkward questions.

"To be a man is, precisely, to be responsible. It is to know shame at the sight of poverty which is not of our making. It is to be proud of a victory won by our comrades. It is to feel, as we place our stone, that we are contributing to the building of the world."

Antoine de Saint-Exupery, Wind, Sand and Stars, 1939

I'm finding it quite beautiful. I shall have to ponder on its review to do it justice.
