Quote by Loren Weisman

“You may show what atomic groupings are necessary in order that life may emerge out of matter, sentience out of life, or intellect out of sentience; but you cannot thereby reduce life, let alone sentient life and intellectual life, to terms of matter; you have only succeeded in tabulating the material coefficients of things which are not themselves material. I do not mean that Mr Russell would not be able to put up a case against this argument; I only complain that he simplified his task by pretending to misunderstand what the argument was; by assuming that it was merely physical when as a matter of fact it is metaphysical.”

“Truth is not convenient. It is not lenient nor passive. It is not kind to the selfish. It will never bend to the forgery of propaganda. It is not predisposed to the pacifism of truth compromised. It will wreck political platforms that pen truth out of their policies. And with the invincible morality that is the essence of truth itself, it will see to it that the consequence of any lie is on its way before the lie is on its. Such is the nature of truth for the fool who would embrace the lie that he is sufficiently wise to betray it.”
