The Past Is Never Where You Think

Civilization, Let Me Tell You What It Is. First The Soldier, Then The Merchant, Then The Priest, Then The Lawyer. The Merchant Hires The Soldier And Priest To Conquer The Country For Him. First The Soldier, He Is A Murderer; Then The Priest, He Is A Liar; Then The Merchant, He Is A Thief; And They All Bring In The Lawyer To Make Their Laws And Defend Their Deeds, And There You Have Your Civilization!

What We Need Now Is Endless Courage.

Perhaps The Habit Which Distinguishes Civilized People From Others Is That Of Discussion, Exchange Of Opinion And Ideas, The Ability To Differ Without Quarrelling, To Say What You Have To Say Civilly And Then To Listen Civilly To Another Speaker.

Life Comes First, An Art Not Rooted In Human Experience Is Not Worth A Damn, But Different Kinds Of Minds Have Different Kinds Of Experience, And All I Ask Of Any Man Is Validity; And There Should Be Place For Every Type And Kind Of Mind.

I Do Not Understand The World, But I Watch It's Progress.
