happy bday British writer Joseph Conrad, b.1857
“It's only those who do nothing that make no mistakes, I suppose.
“The belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary; men alone are quite capable of every wickedness.
“Facing it, always facing it, that’s the way to get through. Face it.

2 December 1978 - Neil Diamond and Barbra Streisand's ‘You Don't Bring Me Flowers’ was at No.1 on the US singles chart. A radio station engineer had spliced together Neil's version with Barbra's version and got such a good response that the station added it to their playlist. #NeilDiamond

RIP Norwegian writer Nordahl Grieg, died this day 1943, known for his resistance to Nazism.
"Here is your shield against violence, here is your sword: the belief in our life, in humans' worth. For all our futures' sake, seek it and grow it. Die if you have to, but increase it and strengthen it"
