If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.

I was just going to say that.
In used books, I almost always find what I'm looking for on abebooks.com (Advanced Book Exchange). I can't always afford them, but that's usually an exception. More often there are multiple copies of a title, sometimes for a dollar or so.
I've been using it for years.

In the spirit of for-the-hell-of-it, I just looked up "AbeBooks" on Wikipedia. And look what the cat dragged in. Among other things, it said:
"On August 1, 2008, AbeBooks announced that it had been acquired by Amazon.com."
News to me.
