Here’s something to while away the time while we wait for Boa’s ‘who is iT’ π
All these quotes are from a game that I’ve been playing for 18 years now, I did win once but winning isn’t the object π
Yes, I know the answers but PLEASE don’t quote me. I’ve been playing ‘Civilization‘ since the early days (1993), it’s the only game that I have on my computer, I’ve progressed from CivI, to CivII, to CivNet and now Civ IV, I’m still hopeless at it, I live in hope!

3. Andre Gide: “On ne dΓ©couvre pas de terre nouvelle sans consentir Γ perdre de vue, d’abord et longtemps, tout rivage.” One doesn’t discover new lands without consenting to lose sight, for a very long time, of the shore.
4. St Augustine: βAccordingly, two cities have been formed by two loves: the earthly by the love of self, even to the contempt of God; the heavenly by the love of God, even to the contempt of self.

Didn’t look very hard for it!
