“In our most Puritan of society, gambling-like other pleasures-is either taxed, restricted to certain hours, or forbidden altogether. Yet the impulse to gamble remains an eternal aspect of the irrationality of man. It finds outlets in business, war, politics, in the formal overtures of the gambling casinos, and in the less ceremonious exchanges among individuals of differing opinions.” MenWarCertainIndividualHoursPleasureOpinionEternalAspectRemainsImpulseGamblingFormalForbiddenOutletsGamblePuritanCasinosIrrationality Author:Richard Arnold Epstein
“Crimea has always been and remains Russian, as well as Ukrainian, Crimean-Tatar, Greek (after all, there are Greeks living there) and German - and it will be home to all of those peoples. As for state affiliation, the people living in Crimea made their choice; it should be treated with respect, and Russia cannot do otherwise. I hope that our neighbouring and distant partners will ultimately treat this the same way, since in this case, the highest criteria used to establish the truth can only be the opinion of the people themselves.” PeopleWayShouldWellsMadeStatesHomeUsedChoicesOpinionCasesHighestTreatsRemainsPartnersRussiaTreatedGreekCriteriaUkrainianAffiliationCrimea Author:Vladimir Putin

“I like film because it brings you very close to the absurd reality that you might spend a day shooting and not get a single image that you like or works, and you won't really know for a few days at least as you wait. It connects you and grounds you to a material reality and a patience that seems lost with digital.

“No two men see the world exactly alike, and different temperaments will apply in different ways a principle that they both acknowledge. The same man will, indeed, often see and judge the same things differently on different occasions: early convictions must give way to more mature ones.

“Hitherto my observations have only aimed at a vindication of the provision in question, on the ground of theoretic propriety . . . . But there remains to be mentioned a positive advantage . . . I allude to the circumstance of uniformity in the time of elections for the House of Representatives. It is more than possible, that this uniformity may be found by experience to be of great importance to the public welfare; both as a security against the perpetuation of the same spirit in the body; and as a cure for the diseases of faction.” MayBodySpiritFoundHouseOpinionSecurityCircumstancesDiseaseAdvantageImportanceElectionRemainsCuresObservationWelfareRepresentativesPublic OpinionProvisionFactionsProprietyUniformityHouse Of RepresentativesVindicationPublic Welfare Author:Alexander Hamilton
“In a world where success is the measure and justification of all things the figure of Him who was sentenced and crucified remains a stranger and is at best the object of pity. The world will allow itself to be subdued only by success. It is not ideas or opinions which decide, but deeds. Success alone justifies wrongs done With a frankness and off-handedness which no other earthly power could permit itself, history appeals in its own cause to the dictum that the end justifies the means The figure of the Crucified invalidates all thought which takes success for its standard.” WorldMeanIdeasEndsDoneCausesOpinionFiguresObjectsStandardsAll ThingsRemainsDeedsStrangerPityAppealsJustifyPermitJustificationAnd OffFranknessEnds Justify The Means Author:Dietrich Bonhoeffer
