“ Where once we aspired to be more like our heroes, today we try to make our heroes more like us. ”
Facts, like living things, have a value in and of themselves and demand respect. Yet some people use them as means to an end, and dismiss them as soon as they are done using them.
~ James Rozoff
True ideas seem to suffer from repetition, while stupid ones tend to flourish.
As time and space are bent by gravity, so too is truth bent by power.
You may never live long enough to discover who you are, but by the time you reach middle age you will hopefully realize who you are not.
