They took a vote

That's one line I haven't been able to get out of my head ever since seeing the Discovery Channel documentary on United Airlines flight 93.

And now there's another line to add to that.

'We have to do it now - because we know what happens if we just sit here and do nothing.'

Democracy doesn't just make us responsible for our actions, but for the results of our lethargy as well.

"I believe in life. I believe in treasuring it as a mystery that will never be fully understood, as a sanctity that should never be destroyed, as an invitation to experience now what can only be remembered tomorrow. (...)
I believe in liberty. I believe that within every soul lies the capacity to reach for its own good, that within every physical body there endures an unalienable right to be free from coercion. (...)
I believe in the pursuit of happiness. Not its attainment, nor its final definition, but its pursuit. I believe in the journey, not the arrival; in conversation, not monologues; in multiple questions rather than any single answer."
Andrew Sullivan
