Skeptical Rogues
S: Steven Novella


Quote of the Week

Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don't we consider it his duty to escape? If we value the freedom of mind and soul, if we're partisans of liberty, then it's our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.

J. R. R. Tolkien, English writer, poet, and philologist
