No shoes, no marks of rank, just our swimming costumes. If you accidentally touch another swimmer while passing him or her, you offer an apology. The\u00a0limitless cruelty towards others like ourselves, the cruelty of which we are capable when we are regimented and indoctrinated, is difficult to imagine here.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Do you have $300,000? Give it to James Patterson. (He needs it, right?) These are the things he\u2019ll give you in return: \u201ca first-class flight to an undisclosed location, two nights stay in a luxury hotel, fourteen-carat gold binoculars, a five-course dinner with the author, and a copy of <em>Private Vegas<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/arts-entertainment\/books\/news\/james-patterson-worlds-wealthiest-author-charges-300000-for-exploding-book-9993617.html\" target=\"_blank\">that will \u2018self-destruct\u2019 twenty-four hours after the purchaser begins reading it<\/a>. The precise nature of the explosion has not been revealed, but it is believed to involve a bomb squad and an exotic location.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Clint Eastwood\u2019s <em>American Sniper<\/em> has broken box-office records largely by attracting white men from Middle America\u2014not typically a movie-going lot\u2014and so finds itself at the center of the culture wars. Is the movie mere war propaganda, as its critics avow, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.salon.com\/2015\/01\/21\/american_sniper_and_the_culture_wars_why_the_movies_not_what_you_think_it_is\/\" target=\"_blank\">or are its fans just intent on reducing it to jingoism<\/a>? \u201cGo ahead and attack Eastwood for making a movie that\u2019s totally uninterested in the underlying politics of the Iraq conflict, and that depicts its Arab characters in cursory and stereotypical terms. That\u2019s entirely legitimate, and indeed I think those America-centric aspects partly undermine the film\u2019s aims. But to assign Eastwood some Bush-Cheney war-booster agenda because he supported Mitt Romney in 2012, or even because some unknown proportion of moviegoers have seized on it that way, simply isn\u2019t fair.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/chronicle.com\/article\/Lies-All-Lies\/151059\/\" target=\"_blank\">On the problem of lying<\/a>, which still gets people riled up and has been linked since at least the earliest days of the Christian church to \u201cthe problem of human existence itself\u201d: \u201cWe all do it, and we all damn it.
