It may have been “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance” but I’m not sure.

Wherever an old cowhand was mentoring a new arrival to the frontier.

Two of the strangest people I know are psychiatrists. I keep wondering if they got into the field to figure out what is wrong with them.

““Psychopathy is a personality disorder that has been variously described as characterized by shallow emotions (in particular reduced fear), stress tolerance, lacking empathy, coldheartedness, lacking guilt, egocentricity, superficial character, manipulativeness, irresponsibility, impulsivity, and antisocial behaviors such as parasitic lifestyle and criminality,”

Sounds like my daughter. Seriously!

My first guess is politicians.

Saints,spies and serial killers eh? First of all there are two kinds of spies...those that work for democratic,free,civilized nations (US,Canada,Britain,etc,etc) and those that work for dangerous,oppressive nations (Russia and China,among *many* others).One group is decent,honorable and respectable,the others are psychopaths.

Another issue....lumping saints in with serial killers? Apart from the ability to walk upright what,of note,could those two groups *possibly* have in common? I say...absolutely nothing.

Okay, thanks. Not much of a movie person — and I haven’t seen “Liberty Valance” — but every time I hear that quote I am curious.

Coincidentally, the husband just bought some deep discount DVDs recently. One of them is a compendium of old John Wayne movies. Haven’t watched them yet, and I don’t really know what is on them.
