" ogma demands authority, rather than intelligent thought, as the source of opinion;
it requires persecution of heretics and hostility to unbelievers; it asks of its
disciples that they should inhibit natural kindliness in favor of systematic hatred."
- Bertrand Russell

“We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth...
For my part, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst;
and to provide for it.”
- Patrick Henry

EVIL

"he individual, in [Henry] Miller's view, had an abiding moral responsibility
for his or her own behavior, and for the behavior of society as a whole.
He said that while writing The Crucible, 'The longer I worked
the more certain I felt that as improbable as it might seem,
there were moments when an individual conscience was all that could keep
a world from falling.'

For the United States, which launched a misguided, pre-emptive war in Iraq,
is shipping prisoners off to foreign countries to be tortured
and has pressed the rewind button on matters of social progress,
this may be one of those moments."

"As democracy is perfected,
the office of President
represents, more and more closely,
the inner soul of the people.
On some great and glorious day
the plain folks of the land
will reach their heart's desire at last
and the White House will be adorned
by a downright moron."

~ H. L. Mencken
