From my dad...for anyone that wonders where it comes from, I come by it honestly:
“,,,the slaughter of the innocent marches unabated: subway riders, bodega owners, cab drivers, babies; in laundromats, at cash machines, on elevators, in hallways…This numbness, this near narcoleptic state can diminish the human condition to the level of combat infantrymen, who, in protracted campaigns, can eat their battlefield rations seated on the bodies of the fallen, friend and foe alike. A society that loses its sense of outrage is doomed to extinction."
-- Judge Edwin Torres, New York State Supreme Court, Twelfth Judicial District
