Quote of the Week- Mao Tse-Tung
I had a chance to read Tom Stoppard's hit play "Rock and Roll," which was being staged in Chicago and Washington, DC, earlier this summer.
Since it takes place (primarily) in the former Czechoslavakia in the summer of 1968, I'd thought I'd go with a quote from two figures from that era on my two respective blogs.
We were initially going to go with Jim Morrison here and Mao Tse-Tung on the other blog, but I like the former Chinese leader's quote better, and it is ironic considering that he was a dictator:
"I voted for you in the last election."
