Patrick Wayne is the new rising star in the world of English authors. He recently made his debut with “Life´s Important Addresses“, which is a collection of short stories regarding the everyday life of the ordinary human, and a few thoughts as to how one should enjoy it. Mr. Wayne was born on the 5^th of September in 1998, in the town of Blackberry´s Hill. So far in his life, he has visited a great many places, making for some good experience and inspiration for future books. There are rumours that his trips has been financed by political parties, but neither the Conservatives nor the Democrats have confirmed this. One thing is for sure, though. Great work can be expected of Patrick Wayne.

Just as an Afterthought

Today i´d like to talk a little bit about a statement made quite some time ago:"To disagree with three-fourths of the British public is one of the first requisites of sanity." 

This quote is from a man named Oscar Wilde, an Irish dramatist. What he meant by saying this was, that if you don´t quite fit in, have beliefs that go against the public´s general opinion, or state something looked upon as inappropriate or very unlikely, a vast majority of people will most likely judge you, and call you mad, disgusting or quite insane. That´s how I see it.

Actually, this quote can be applied to the modern society of today. If you switch out "the British public" in the quote, with only "the public", it would be a statement that fits perfectly well into the context of the world we live in today. 

Maybe that´s a little something to think about...
