http://www.sevencagedtigers.com/drew.jpg Personal Info Last Update: 12-29-11
I started out on the site writing mainly music reviews (last one was 8-1-07), hence the high ranking in that category. I don't write too often anymore, but I do stop by to update my page, recording book acquisitions. I have stopped updating the music portion, as I rarely buy CDs anymore

Quotations
Curiosity is one of the most permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous intellect Samuel Johnson
Murdoch did more damage to British culture than anyone since the Luftwaffe - John Cleese
The genuine poet … is certain of the total defeat of the human enterprise and arranges to fail in his own life in order to bear witness, by his individual defeat, to human defeat in general.--Jean-Paul Sartre
Don't flatter yourself that friendship authorizes you to say disagreeable things to your intimates. The nearer you come into relation with a person, the more necessary do tact and courtesy become. Oliver Wendell Holmes
To delight in war is a merit in the soldier, a dangerous quality in the captain, and a positive crime in the statesman. -George Santayana, philosopher (1863-1952)
I don't know why we are here, but I'm pretty sure that it is not in order
to enjoy ourselves. -Ludwig Wittgenstein, philosopher (1889-1951)
Tolerably early in life I discovered that one of the unpardonable sins, in the eyes of most people, is for a man to presume to go about unlabelled. The world regards such a person as the police do an unmuzzled dog, not under proper control. -Thomas Henry Huxley, biologist and writer
(1825-1895)
The vast majority of human beings dislike and even dread all notions with which they are not familiar. Hence it comes about that at their first appearance innovators have always been derided as fools and madmen. -Aldous
Huxley, novelist (1894-1963)
Almost all our faults are more pardonable than the methods we resort to to hide them. -Francois de La Rochefoucauld, writer (1613-1680)
It is easier to lead men to combat, stirring up their passion, than to restrain them and direct them toward the patient labors of peace. -Andre Gide, author, Nobel laureate (1869-1951)
The liberties of a people never were, nor ever will be, secure when the transactions of their rulers may be concealed from them. -Patrick Henry, revolutionary (1736-1799)
The courage of the poet is to keep ajar the door that leads into madness.
-Christopher Morley, writer (1890-1957)
We can have Democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few.....but we cannot have both.
-Louis D. Brandeis, Supreme Court Justice
Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government, to befoul the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics, is the first task of the statesmanship of the day.
- Theodore Roosevelt, April 19, 1906
Once upon a time a man whose ax was missing suspected his neighbor's son. The boy walked like a thief, looked like a thief, and spoke like a thief. But the man found his ax while digging in the valley, and the next time he saw his neighbor's son, the boy walked, looked and spoke like any other child. -Lao-tzu, philosopher (6th century BCE)
Good books don't give up all their secrets at once. -Stephen King, novelist
(1947- )
The thing that makes you exceptional, if you are at all, is inevitably that which must also make you lonely. -Lorraine Hansberry, playwright and painter (1930-1965)
