“It’s unlikely to change – there’s nothing in King Salman’s past as governor of Riyadh for about forty years that suggests that he was particularly a reformer, not on the role of women, not on democratic development. There’s been a rumor in the last couple of days that he said to someone in an e-mail that he’s in favor of a constitutional monarchy, but I would be surprised if the level of repression started to go down … I think the kind of thing that we would view as significant reforms is unlikely.” IfsThinkingYearsKindSaidWould BeLastsPastLevelsViewsRolesDevelopmentCoupleKingsDemocraticFavorsSignificantReformFortyMailGovernorsUnlikelyRumorMonarchyRepressionReformersConstitutional MonarchyRiyadh Author:Elliott Abrams

“We need development in the Northern Territory but we don't need it based on something we might get in five years.

“For many years, questions about the meaning of life were dismissed as senseless. We were told that life, not being a word or sentence or anything language-like, can't intelligibly be said to have meaning. An encouraging development in the last couple of decades is a return by philosophers to addressing - as nearly all people do at some time or another - the question of life's meaning.” PeopleYearsSaidLastsLanguageDevelopmentReturnCouplePhilosopherSentencesDecadesMeaning Of Life Author:David E.
