QOTD


“And perhaps most importantly, it calls for us to be honest with ourselves. What better place to begin to do so than here, in this place where so many young people from all over the world come to learn, research, and discuss the issues of our time under the maxim of truth? That requires us not to describe lies as truth and truth as lies.” -- German Chancellor and leader of the free world Angela Merkel, in her Harvard commencement speech yesterday (receiving a standing ovation at that point). She was remarking on the need to have "courage and truthfulness" when dealing with others, and taking a not- subtle jab at world- class liar Donald "Not Exonerated" Trump.  Danke!
