The quote above is from an interview with Umberto Eco at Spiegel Online International. Appropriate in light of the encroaching/already published end-of-the-year roundups.
"We have a limit, a very discouraging, humiliating limit: death. That's why we like all the things that we assume have no limits and, therefore, no end. It's a way of escaping thoughts about death. We like lists because we don't want to die."
"Links for the Day": Each day (more or less) the House editors post a link/links to an item that we hope will spark discussion. We encourage our readers to submit candidates for consideration to keithuhlich@gmail.com and to converse in the comments section.
