Ali Palimpsest


"That's not the way the world really works anymore. We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality - judiciously, as you will - we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out."

-Unnamed George W. Bush senior adviser,
speaking to New York Times reporter Ron Suskind in 2002
