Thanks for visiting me, Kaiser (Wilhelm von) Shatner! I've been around since 2004. I tend to disagree with my liberal friends and colleagues on political matters, but I believe very strongly that the objective facts about all views should be portrayed here as neutrally as possible.

"Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not their own facts."
Daniel Patrick Moynihan

"'To cause constellations of victories to flash forth at each instant from the zenith of the centuries, to make the French Empire a pendant to the Roman Empire, to be the great nation and to give birth to the grand army, to make its legions fly forth over all the earth, as a mountain sends out its eagles on all sides to conquer, to dominate, to strike with lightning, to be in Europe a sort of nation gilded through glory, to sound athwart the centuries a trumpet-blast of Titans, to conquer the world twice, by conquest and by dazzling, that is sublime; and what greater thing is there?'

'To be free', said Combeferre." --Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

"When the situation was manageable it was neglected, and now that it is thoroughly out of hand, we apply too late the remedies which then might have effected a cure. There is nothing new in the story. It is as old as the Sibylline books. It falls into that long dismal catalogue of the fruitlessness of experience and the confirmed unteachability of mankind. Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong - these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history." Winston Spencer Churchill, speech to the House of Commons, May 2, 1935.

"Arguing with anonymous strangers on the Internet is a sucker's game because they almost always turn out to be- or to be indistinguishable from- self-righteous sixteen-year-olds possessing infinite amounts of free time."
Neal Stephenson, Cryptonomicon

I got curious so I googled that "world view" quiz. This sounds about right: You scored as Existentialist. Existentialism emphasizes human capability. There is no greater power interfering with life and thus it is up to us to make things happen. Sometimes considered a negative and depressing world view, your optimism towards human accomplishment is immense. Mankind is condemned to be free and must accept the responsibility.
