Aim high Quote by Anonymous
“You have some intelligent quotes, But I'm also seeing a lot of immature and second-rate quotes here. I do wish you would vet them more stringently. This seems to be an indication of how our society is slowing slipping into too much undisciplined flirting with ignorance and lack of serious thought. We used to aim higher. We didn't always make it, but at least we didn't give the podium to childish people not ready to offer an intelligent statement. Hope you take this as a serious request to help keep our society on an upward thinking destination.”
