Quote by Aura Biru

“To have been anything at all is such a strange and astounding fate. From stardust to heartbeat, from infinity to a blink, we are brief miracles, narratives spun from the cosmos, living, breathing art formed from chaos and chance. What a peculiar honour, to be here, to wonder, to wander.”

“Democratic Senator Robert Byrd, who ultimately became known as a mainstream Democratic leader in the 1970s and 1980s, and served as a mentor to Hillary Clinton, was an 'exalted cyclops' of the Ku Klux Klan.”

“Although he (Senator Robert Byrd) apologized numerous times for what he considered a youthful indiscretion, his early votes in Congress---notably a filibuster against the 1964 Civil Rights Act---reflected racially separatist views.”

“In several interviews, Byrd acknowledged that he had briefly 'briefly' been a member of the KKK, and blamed it on 'youthful indiscretion'. In fact, his involvement with the KKK was far more extensive than he ever admitted. In the early 1940s, Byrd recruited 150 of his friends and associates to form a chapter of the Ku Klux Klan in Crab Orchard, West Virginia.”
