“Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.”

Sorry, Yeats beat you to it Russell.

[I’m just being an ass here. I like Russell, I just can’t help thinking of this quote in relation to this one whenever I see it on my dash.]
