"It is better to debate a question without settling it than
to settle a question without debating it." - -Jeseph Joubert
"Minds are like parachutes; they work best when open."

pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had
happened. - Sir Winston Churchill
"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent
one." - Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
- Shakespeare, Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5
"In the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed man is king."
-Desiderius Erasmus, Adages
"Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And
moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue." -Barry
