“I like the fact that it [social media] is unfiltered. In other words it's not Geraldo of Fox News or Geraldo of WABC Radio, it's Geraldo. And you know it's raw, unedited, what I'm thinking, what I'm feeling, or, you know, some mistakes I'm making in real time. And I see that as a way to go out kicking and screaming. People will be hearing from me 'til the bitter end now.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWayRealEndsFactsFeelingsSocialMistakeMediaNewsRadioSocial MediaHearingBitterFoxesKickingFox News Author:Geraldo Rivera

“It is a mistake to consider marriage merely as a scheme of happiness. It is also a bond of service.

“To believe that man's aggressiveness or territoriality is in the nature of the beast is to mistake some men for all men, contemporary society for all possible societies, and, by a remarkable transformation, to justify what is as what needs must be; social repression becomes a response to, rather than a cause of, human violence. Pessimism about man serves to maintain the status quo. It is a luxury for the affluent, a sop to the guilt of the politically inactive, a comfort to those who continue to enjoy the amenities of privilege.” MenNeedsBelieveHumansSocialCausesEnjoyMistakeViolenceComfortTransformationGuiltResponsePrivilegeContemporaryLuxuryBeastRemarkableJustifyPessimismStatus QuoRepressionAffluentAggressivenessAmenitiesContemporary Society Author:Leon Eisenberg
