<p>Like the fable of the Fox and the Grapes there is the maxim that
the Grass is always greener on the other side of the Fence. Both
relate to the ways in which the mechanisms of desire subvert
rationality. (<i>Sour Grapes</i> by Jon Elster) These are common
to all men including the politically correct, who may think
otherwise from the height of their moral elevation.<br>
