Quote of the Day

This quote is from the beginning of a Conan novel I read in high school. I wrote it out on a cue card and hung it on my bulletin board for a very long time. It's quality.

"Barbarism is the natural state of mankind. Civilization is unnatural. It is a whim of circumstance. And barbarism must always ultimately triumph."
-Border guard on the Pictish border (of Cimmeria)
