Hah. And this quote made my day.
As for the issue of whether or not to continue to reproduce males, it doesn’t follow that because the male, like disease, has always existed among us that he should continue to exist. When genetic control is possible — and soon it will be — it goes without saying that we should produce only whole, complete beings, not physical defects of deficiencies, including emotional deficiencies, such as maleness. Just as the deliberate production of blind people would be highly immoral, so would be the deliberate production of emotional cripples.

Who would have thought I’d find this while searching Heath Ledger on wiki?
Sad day for everyone. First, it was Brad Renfro, now, Heath Ledger. Now of course, on a potential star-o-meter, the latter overtrumps the former, but still. Had Heath any been younger when he tripped on stardom, he could have graced Tiger Beat and BOP’s pages as well. But, as they claimed, he chose his roles perfectly. And kudos to him.
But. All’s done now. Didn’t help too that weeks from now people will be watching a dead Joker in the cinemas.

And to think his Joker is awesome. bah. What a waste.

I know! God, we were already planning to catch the movie as soon as. Now it’ll just be plain sad to see the movie and know that he’s dead. :/ Ah, well. Gotta move on, though.
