Quotes

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

George Santayana

I fear for the future of our nation, for God is just.

Thomas Jefferson

Everybody is entitled to their own set of opinions, but not to their own set of facts”

Daniel Patrick Moynihan

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

Aldous Huxley

It was granted to me to carry away from my prison years on my bent back, which nearly broke beneath its load, this essential experience: how a human being becomes evil and how good. In the intoxication of youthful successes I had felt myself to be infallible, and I was therefore cruel. In the surfeit of power I was a murderer and an oppressor. In my most evil moments I was convinced that I was doing good, and I was well supplied with systematic arguments. It was only when I lay there on rotting prison straw that I sensed within myself the first stirrings of good. Gradually it was disclosed to me that the line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either, but right through every human heart, and through all human hearts. This line shifts. Inside us, it oscillates with the years. Even within hearts overwhlemed by evil, one small bridgehead of good is retained; and even in the best of all hearts, there remains a small corner of evil.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Behold, my son, with how little wisdom the world is governed.

Axel Oxenstierna
