Max Brooks Quotes
So You Never Really Tried To Solve The Problem.
Oh, C'mon. Can You Ever "solve" Poverty? Can You Ever "solve" Crime? Can You Ever "solve" Disease, Unemployment, War, Or Any Other Societal Herpes? Hell No. All You Can Hope For Is To Make Them Manageable Enough To Allow People To Get On With Their Lives. That's Not Cynicism, That's Maturity. You Can't Stop The Rain. All You Can Do Is Just Build A Roof That You Hope Won't Leak, Or At Least Won't Leak On The People Who Are Gonna Vote For You.
What Does That Mean?

Seriously. What Does That Mean?
Fine, Whatever, "Mister Smith Goes To Motherfuckin' Washington," It Means That, In Politics, You Focus On The Needs Of Your Power Base. Keep Them Happy, And They Keep You In Office.
