Quotes

...If an employer thinks that Scorpios make bad employees, the employer can refuse to hire Scorpios. Justice Alito

Give a man a mask, and he'll tell you deeper and darker truths. But he'll also be more abusive, unaccountable, and demonic. Cory Duchesne

When you are wrestling for possession of a sword, the man with the handle always wins. Neal Stephenson

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.

Isaac Asimov

The virus makes the timeline, we don't make the timeline. Oregon Gov. Kate Brown

Perhaps you think the Creator sent you here to dispose of us as you see fit. If I thought you were sent by the Creator, I might be induced to think you had a right to dispose of me. Do not misunderstand me, but understand fully with reference to my affection for the land. I never said the land was mine to do with as I choose. The one who has a right to dispose of it is the one who has created it. I claim a right to live on my land and accord you the privilege to return to yours. Chief Joseph - 1876

I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail. Abraham Maslow

I never learned from a man who agreed with me. Robert A. Heinlein
