    Societies and Fulfilling Dreams

    "When societies set things up so the only way people can achieve their dreams is to go outside the law, it automatically loses any opportunity to control the chain reaction. "(from Val McDermid's Blue Genes, 1996)

    Information the British vs American Way

    "If I had to pick one thing that demonstrates the key differences between the UK and the USA, it would be their attitudes to information. Americans get everything unless there's a damn good reason why not. Brits get nothing unless a High Court judge and an Act of Parliament have said there's a damn good reason why we should." (from Val McDermid's Blue Genes, 1996) (Picture: Amazon.co.uk)
