"I believe that ignorance is the root of all evil.  And that no one knows the truth."
    -- Molly Ivins (1944-2007)

A fine writer, someone I've looked up to for most of my adult life, is gone.

Molly was the first person who would tell you she wasn't perfect -- after all, she only believed in practicing prudence "every two or three years" -- but she wrote some of the sharpest lines ever.  She was, for example, the one who said Pat Buchanan's 1992 "culture war" speech "probably sounded better in the original German."

If Molly can't go to heaven for some reason, maybe her soul will haunt the Texas Legislature forever.  That might be close enough to heaven for her.
