You take the trouble to construct a civilization…to..to Build a society, based on the principles of…of principle…

You endeavor to make communicable sense out of natural Order, morality out of the unnatural disorder of man’s Mind…you make government and art, and realize that They are, must be, both the same…you bring things to the Saddest of all points…to the point where there is something to lose…

Edward Albee 2007
