An English-speaking tourist has died after jumping off the Eiffel Tower. The man climbed up the outside of the structure at around 11:30pm yesterday before leaping to his death. Police had spotted him scaling the 1,063ft tower, prompting them to evacuate and seal off the area. Firefighters tried to talk the man down but failed. It is thought he jumped from around 1,000ft, said Frederic Grosjean, deputy spokesman for the Paris firefighters' brigade.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
