the price you pay.
BARTLET: What have you got for me, John?
MARBURY: Well, um, after speaking at length this past week with your secretaries of state and defense, as well as your joint chiefs and various embassy officials, I believe this: buy them off.
BARTLET: Buy them?
MARBURY: Yes, sir.
BARTLET: How?
MARBURY: Mr. President, for several centuries, my kingdom has ruled India with a stick and carrot. When we had a particular problem with someone, one solution we would try is to make him a maharaja. That’s kind of a regional king. We would pay him off with an annual tribute, and in return, he would be loyal to the crown.
LEO: Lord Marbury, under our Constitution, our President is not empowered to create maharajas.
MARBURY: Yes. Thank you for clearing that up, Leo. Having been educated at Cambridge and the Sorbonne, I am, as you know, exceedingly stupid.
BARTLET: John, please.
MARBURY: You’ve been paying the world off since the industrial age. Foreign aid, during the Cold War was you paying dictators to be on your side. To this very day, you pay Korea not to develop nuclear weapons.
BARTLET: What does India want?
MARBURY: A computer industry, and for that, they require an infrastructure, and that is what you can give them.
LEO: Why?
MARBURY: It’s the price you pay.
LEO: For avoiding a war halfway around the world?
MARBURY: For being rich, free and alive all at the same time. And for the criminally negligent behavior of your Congress in not checking the proliferation of nuclear devices.

i’ll say this much: i wasn’t expecting it.
today someone gave me a cup worth $65.
it’s from the UK and it has the queen’s face on it. i think the gold stuff is real gold. bone china, official royal merchandise, from 1959.
good time to be grateful for the real cool humans i have in my life: right now.

eyes brimming with tears. heart rate increasing. I tell you the story because I was raised the Chinese way. I was taught to desire nothing, to swallow other people’s misery, and to eat my own bitterness. And even though I taught my daughter the opposite, still she came out the same way. Maybe it is because she was born to me and she was born a girl, and I was born to my mother and I was...

Dear Coke Talk: On chinese mothers. →
dearcoketalk:
I recently read the article Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior.
I am Asian American. I attest that this is parenting method is a crapshoot as much as any other style of parenting, though I suppose me simply saying that proves very little.
I see value in whatever she is trying to teach her children.
There’s something funky with the assumptions and implications of her argument,...

trashtasia:
for me is all about owning it. owning it in the sense of being more honest and straight up with myself and with friends and others. in some ways i’ve become an emotional punching bag for a lot of people which has been my fault. but i’m done. “I’M DONE”! as sammie from jersey shore so eloquently said numerous times in reference to her douchebag boyfriend. i’ve been conditioned...

cool new diet:
1. do not want to put on clothes 2. do not live near a grocery store 3. have a jar of salsa in the fridge 4. straight-up eat it all day 5. feel bad about yourself 6. repeat
best executed while hungover or “reading, like, a really cool new blog i just found”
or both!
