Imagine if all of life were determined by majority rule.

• Every meal would be a pizza.
• Every pair of pants, even those in a Brooks Brothers suit, would be stone-washed denim.
• Celebrity diet and exercise books would be the only thing on the shelves at the library.
• And – since women are a majority of the population- we’d all be married to Mel Gibson.

– P.J.O’Rourke, Parliament of Whores (1991)
