"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Remembering Heroes of Darker Days
"I had the great fortune to spend last week teaching at the Advanced Austrian Economics seminar at FEE’s Irvington-on-Hudson mansion. As readers may or may not know, the mansion has been sold, although it may take some time before all of the bureaucratic hurdles are crossed. It was, most likely, the last time I would be there for that very special seminar. On the final evening the Foundation hosted an gathering, and dozens of alumni and FEE supporters came to the event. At one point in the evening I wandered into the library and found myself alone in the room, for perhaps the last time."
