“In whatever kind of a ‘race’ life may be, I have very abruptly become a finalist” ~ Christopher Hitchens
(Christopher Hitchens, a slashing polemicist in the tradition of Thomas Paine and George Orwell who trained his sights on targets as various as Henry Kissinger, the British monarchy and Mother Teresa, and wrote a best-seller attacking religious belief, died Thursday at the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. He was 62.)
