28. Yep.

"I think we overvalue passionate feeling in this country as some form of cleansing sincerity. Feeling something has the sensation of actual knowledge, bypassing mental work, the necessity of thought and the application of reason, not to mention actual information. I think it is significant that among people suffering from dementia, the last thing to go is the ability to have a strident opinion. It is the easiest thing to generate."

Mick LaSalle - San Francisco Chronicle 8/28/11.
