If you feel the need to satisfy your Masochistic traits is so strong, that you need to post about them… Maybe this is the wrong site for you. Just a thought (obligatory smiley :lol: )
Happy New Year to you all!Well, since I’m replying to you I would seem to be on exactly the right site. It’s hardly my fault someone moved this thread to my post.

to revel in the action of forces that have no respect for ego,
to let the tides flow, even though they flow over us.”William James

“there are four types of officer – clever, stupid, lazy, and industrious. All my officers have two of these categories.
The clever and industrious I promote to my general staff. I need them.
The stupid and lazy are kept – they can be used under certain circumstances.
The clever and lazy I appoint as Generals – they have the nerve and clarity of mind needed in
a crisis.The stupid and industrious need to be removed – they are very dangerous”.
a quote from the head of the German Army in Weimar, removed by Hitler for his ardent opposition to the Nazis.
In my experience, the stupid and industrious tend to go to the top.

Ok …. tears
a part of kindness consists to loving people more than they deserve.
the author John le Carré on bombing Syria – “if you bomb it, you own it…Punitive raids, when you don’t know who you are punishing, and who you are unwittingly supporting – and whether one raid will do the trick or a few more might be necessary – are sheer insanity at any time, but now more than ever before”.
