Post by: rdmapes on July 10, 2009, 04:22:11 AM

a consequent general softening of the fibers of will, intelligence, spirit."

-- Whittaker Chambers
[Jay Vivian Chambers] (aka David Whittaker) (1901-1961) American writer, editor. A Communist party member and Soviet spy, he later renounced communism and became an outspoken opponent.
