It's our goddamed city! It's our goddamed country. No terrorist can take it from us for so long as we're free. Once we're not free, the terrorists win! Take it back!

It's part of a cycle of stories I'm writing where I deconstruct classic science fiction.
Cory Doctorow
The idea that bigger haystacks have more needles in them is dumb on its face
Cory Doctorow
The right to freedom of association is fine, but why shouldn't the cops be allowed to mine your social network to figure out if you're hanging out with gangbangers and terrorists?
Cory Doctorow
It's hard not to like Asimov he's a really likable guy.
Cory Doctorow
Carlton Mellick III is one of bizarro fiction's most talented practitioners, a virtuoso of the surreal, science fictional tale.
Cory Doctorow
Funny, for all surveillance, Osama bin Laden is still freeand we're not. Guess who's winning the war on terror?
Cory Doctorow
He hated it when adults told him he only felt the way he did because he was young. As if being young was like being insane or drunk, like the convictions he held were hallucinations caused by a mental illness that could only be cured by waiting five years.
Cory Doctorow
No one should do a job he can do in his sleep.
Cory Doctorow
Each generation of rabbis is necessarily less perfect than the rabbis that came before, since each generation is more removed from the perfection of the Garden. Therefore, no rabbi is allowed to overturn any of his forebears' wisdom, since they are all, by definition, smarter than him.
