WORD

“Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth.” Albert Einstein

"What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way." Bertrand Russell

"Chase after the truth like all hell and you'll free yourself, even though you never touch its coattails." Clarence Darrow

"There is nothing to fear except the persistent refusal to find out the truth, the persistent refusal to analyze the causes of happenings." Dorothy Thompson

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act." George Orwell

"The beginning of wisdom is found in doubting; by doubting we come to the question, and by seeking we may come upon the truth." Pierre Abelard

"The opposite of a fact is falsehood, but the opposite of one profound truth may very well be another profound truth." Neils Bohr

"Truth and Good are one; and Beauty dwells in them, and they in her." Mark Akenside

"The greatest friend of Truth is time, her greatest enemy is Prejudice." Charles Caleb Colton

Seven depressing years led by a depraved frat boy and one of the dark lords has convinced me of the utter moral bankruptcy our leader class has. We are in the throes of a perfect neo-destructive storm, and no one will utter THE WORD.
