"In politics, the choice is not between good and evil, but between the preferable and the detestable."
-- Raymond Aron
(1905-1983),
as quoted by
Michael Brendan Dougherty,
who adds:
"Of course this gives incredible license to 'the preferable' to act detestably."
-- The American Conservative,
February 25, 2008.
