newspapers

Our newspapers, for the most part, present only the caricatures of disaffected minds. Indeed, the abuses of the freedom of the press here have been carried to a length never before known or borne by any civilized nation.

Thomas Jefferson

government

I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government.

Henry David Thoreau

truth

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.

Buddha

education

Education is not the filling of a pail; it is the lighting of a fire.

science

The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.

Isaac Asimov

faults

Truly it is an evil to be full of faults; but it is a still greater evil to be full of them and to be unwilling to recognize them, since that is to add the further fault of a voluntary illusion.

Blaise Pascal

problems

A problem cannot be solved by the same consciousness that caused it.

Albert Einstein

solutions

I have had my solutions for a long time; but I do not yet know how I am to arrive at them.

Karl F Gauss

war

All men can see these tactics whereby I conquer, but what none can see is the strategy out of which victory is evolved. Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.

Sun Tzu

government

I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government.

I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by a conscious endeavor.

Henry David Thoreau

The more you know, the less you understand.

circumstances

People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.

George Bernard Shaw

suckers

A man who stands for nothing, will fall for anything.

Malcolm X
