“Science is not sacrosanct. The mere fact that it exists, is admired, has results is not sufficient for making it a measure of excellence. Modern science arose from global objections against earlier views and rationalism itself, the idea that there are general rules and standards for conducting our affairs, affairs of knowledge included, arose from global objections to common sense.” IdeasFactsResultsViewsCommonModernStandardsExcellenceMereAffairCommon SenseSufficientObjectionsModern ScienceConductingRationalism Author:Paul Feyerabend
“I will insist the Hebrews have [contributed] more to civilize men than any other nation. If I was an atheist and believed in blind eternal fate, I should still believe that fate had ordained the Jews to be the most essential instrument for civilizing the nations. They are the most glorious nation that ever inhabited this Earth. The Romans and their empire were but a bubble in comparison to the Jews. They have given religion to three-quarters of the globe and have influenced the affairs of mankind more and more happily than any other nation, ancient or modern.” IfsMenShouldBelieveStillsEarthThreeGivenNationsFateModernMankindEssentialsEternalInstrumentsBlindAffairAncientAtheistJewGloriousEmpiresComparisonQuartersBubblesGlobesJudaismHebrewHands TiedJewish Religion Author:John Adams
“I had the privilege and the honor of chairing the Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs. And it is interesting to me, you know, Republicans give a lot of speeches about how much they love veterans. I work with the American Legion, the VFW, the DAV, the Vietnam Vets, and virtually every veterans organization to put together the most comprehensive piece of the veterans legislation in the modern history of America. That's what I did.” KnowsGivingTogetherAmericaInterestingPiecesModernHonorRepublicanSpeechOrganizationAffairPrivilegeVietnamSenateCommitteesLegislationVeteranComprehensiveLegionVetsModern HistoryVietnam Vets Author:Bernie Sanders
