J(ames) William Fulbright 4.6250 average rating Rate this Quote

"The common dogma [of fundamentalists] is fear of modern knowledge, inability to cope with the fast change in a scientific-technological society, and the real breakdown in apparent moral order in recent years.... That is why hate is the major fuel, fear is the cement of the movement, and superstitious ignorance is the best defence against the dangerous new knowledge. ... When you bring up arguments that cast serious doubts on their cherished beliefs you are not simply making a rhetorical point, you are threatening their whole Universe and their immortality. That provokes anger and quite frequently violence. ... Unfortunately you cannot reason with them and you even risk violence in confronting them. Their numbers will decline only when society stabilizes, and adapts to modernity." G Gaia 4.4444 average rating Rate this Quote

(speaking about the dress she wore made of American Express Cards)" Lizzy Gardiner 2.0000 average rating Rate this Quote
"Over-seriousness is a warning sign for mediocrity and bureaucratic thinking. People who are seriously committed to mastery and high performance are secure enough to lighten up." Michael J. Gelb 4.5000 average rating Rate this Quote
"He who sees the truth, let him proclaim it, without asking who is for it or who is against it." Henry George 5.0000 average rating Rate this Quote
"On a good day, I view the job [of president] as directing an orchestra. On the dark days, it is more like that of a clutch-engaging the engine to effect forward motion, while taking greater friction." A(ngelo) Bartlett Giamatti Rate this Quote
"Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun, so must you know pain." Kahlil Gibran 4.9560 average rating Rate this Quote
"Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need." Kahlil Gibran 4.8400 average rating Rate this Quote
"My friends and my road-fellows, pity the nation that is full of beliefs and empty of religion. "Pity the nation that wears a cloth it does not weave, eats a bread it does not harvest, and drinks a wine that flows not from its own winepress. "Pity the nation that acclaims the bully as hero, and that deems the glittering conqueror bountiful. "Pity the nation that raises not its voice save when it walks in a funeral, boasts not except among its ruins, and will rebel not save when its neck is laid between the sword and the block. "Pity the nation whose statesman is a fox, whose philosopher is a juggler, and whose art is the art of patching and mimicking. "Pity the nation that welcomes its new ruler with trumpetings, and farewells him with hootings, only to welcome another with trumpetings again. "Pity the nation divided into fragments, each fragment deeming itself a nation." Kahlil Gibran 5.0000 average rating Rate this Quote
"Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it." André Gide 5.0000 average rating Rate this Quote
