The flush toilet, more than any single invention, has 'civilized' us in a way that religion and law could never accomplish.
No one dreamed them up. No one needed to. The vampire clawing at the window, the werewolf prowling the moor, the hags at the crossroads – they lurked here already. Some nightmares are ancient, as old as civilization. Some are older still.
Malibu: With sounds of waves crashing, and the ocean at the doorstep, you feel like you are hours away from civilization. And with L.A. traffic, YOU ARE.
While civilization has been improving our houses, it has not equally improved the men who are to inhabit them
