“Conservatism, we are told, is out-of-date. This charge is preposterous and we ought to boldly say so. The laws of God, and of nature, have no dateline. These principles are derived from the nature of man, and from the truths that God has revealed about His creation. To suggest that the Conservative philosophy is out of date is akin to saying that the Golden Rule, or the Ten Commandments or Aristotle's Politics are out of date.” MenPhilosophyLawPrinciplesCreationOughtTenConservativeGoldenCommandmentsConservatismGolden RuleTen CommandmentsNature Of Man Author:Barry Goldwater

“I think the Greeks invented sports as an antidote to philosophy. In sports there are absolute rules. It's not, What about this? What about that? Either you're safe or you're out.

“It is an odd fact of evolution that we are the only species on Earth capable of creating science and philosophy. There easily could have been another species with some scientific talent, say that of the average human ten-year-old, but not as much as adult humans have; or one that is better than us at physics but worse at biology; or one that is better than us at everything. If there were such creatures all around us, I think we would be more willing to concede that human scientific intelligence might be limited in certain respects.” IfsThinkingYearsHumansHas BeensPhilosophyFactsMightWould BeEarthCertainTalentWillingEvolutionTenCreaturesCreatingCapableAdultsSpeciesAveragePhysicsOddBiologyCould Have BeenScience And Philosophy Author:Colin McGinn
“I think that there's room for everyone. I don't think that if one person succeeds then another must fail. That's lunacy.
