I believed this was apochryphal, but apparently it is true.

It feels a little like that today - nothing much has changed, mass killing is going on around the world, some reported on some ignored, the environment is going to hell in a diesel powered handcart, authoritarianism is on the rise, supported by apparently liberal governments such as the one in London, BUT there is a blue sky. Better make the best of it.
