Donald Rumsfeld, Prophet and Comedian

Banality Fair has my all-time favorite Rumsfeldian quote - and really, the man is one of the great convoluted minds of our time:

"Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns - the ones we don't know we don't know." -- Donald Rumsfeld, February 12, 2002
