My decision to support the Republicans stems from my conviction that  
what my country needs now is Law and Ordination.

Be well, Mr Rava. And give some thought to the fact that when Japanese  
people think they'll see each other again, they say "de wa mata," not  
"sayonara." (The latter means something like "it comes to this" and  
has an alarming ring of finality to it.)

de wa mata, tot ziens, à la prochaine, hasta leugo and see you later
