Alright, this is a desperate attempt to break away from the poems that have been coming along. Here's something that got me laughing last night.
"In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed - they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissannce. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."
Some philosophy eh? Anyway, I checked on who this Orson Welles was (excuse the ignorance), and he is apparantly a name to recon with in the film world. He co-wrote, directed, produced and starred in Citizen Kane! In fact, in a poll conducted in Britain, he was voted the greatest director of all time. He was also criticised for his halloween joke on CBS, scaring the Americans by implying a War of the Worlds.
