    Who
    My name's Anita Wirawan and I love stories :).

    I read/watch a lot of stories and like to share the most interesting and unusual ones here to see what everyone else thinks about them.

    Why
    I had originally started this blog as a way to get things together after my brother Jody died back in 2008, but it's turned into a lot more than that.

    I hope you'll find the stories that you need here.

    What Next

Linked to by Wikileaks, very cool.

The Julian Assange (from Wikileaks) Quotes page got linked to by @wikileaks yesterday. I have major respect for them so it was a very cool thing to see!

So the story behind the whole quotes page thing is:

While watching videos of talks by Julian Assange on YouTube I realized that some really enlightening things were being said and decided to type them up. The quotes gave some insight into the ideas of Wikileaks and also showed many of the deep revelations that leaked documents have provided.

I put them all into a quote generator because I’ve found that’s an effective way to revisit important info over time…then made the more static quotes page and txt download to go along with it.

Didn’t think many would stop by or be into either page much (but thought it would be a shame not to post it anyway)…so yeah was very surprised yesterday. Happily surprised.

The quotes pages are ongoing projects so more quotes will be added regularly. If you want to find out more about Julian Assange or about what Wikileaks is doing see Wikileaks.

    Here’s my favourite Julian Assange quote, in answer to the question why does he do it. (Feel free to add it to your quote generator!)

    “There are reasons I do it that have to do with wanting to reform civilization … Of course, there’s a personal psychology to it, that I enjoy crushing bastards …”

    —- Wikileaks co-founder Julian Assange in an interview with salon.com, 27 Mar 2010 —-
