    Careful, Eugene. Once you realize that there is a real world, once you see that it’s independent of verbal description and egalitarian fantasies, once you get it, Eugene, you’ll turn into a conservative.

    This is progress I can believe in. Next thing, Eugene will begin to reason. With facts. Cool.
