One of Gordon's favorite quotes is:""Judge of a man by his questions rather than by his answers." Voltaire
"He who regards his intellectual knowledge as ignorance has deep insight. He who overrates his intellectual achievement as definite truth is deeply sick. Only when one is sick of this sickness can one cease to be sick." -Lao Tzu
The essence of the liberal outlook lies not in what opinions are held, but in how they are held: instead of being held dogmatically, they are held tentatively, and with a consciousness that new evidence may at any moment lead to their abandonment.--Bertrand Russell
Either you repeat the same conventional doctrines everybody is saying, or else you say something true, and it will sound like it's from Neptune. --Noam Chomsky
"Don't ask me nothin' about nothin', I just might tell you truth" -Bob Dylan
"There is room at the top they are telling you still, but first you must learn how to smile as you kill" John Lennon
"Only a life lived for others is worth living" --Albert Einstein

e so many Americans, she was trying to construct a life that made sense from things she found in gift shops. -Kurt Vonnegut
Power and riches appear then to be, what they are, enormous and operose machines contrived to produce a few trifling conveniencies to the body, consisting of springs the most nice and delicate, which must be kept in order with the most anxious attention, and which in spite of all our care are ready every moment to burst into pieces, and to crush in their ruins their unfortunate possessor. -Adam Smith
Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress. -Frederick Douglass
Passive acceptance of the teacher's wisdom is easy to most boys and girls. It involves no effort of independent thought, and seems rational because the teacher knows more than his pupils; it is moreover the way to win the favour of the teacher unless he is a very exceptional man. Yet the habit of passive acceptance is a disastrous one in later life. It causes man to seek and to accept a leader, and to accept as a leader whoever is established in that position. --Bertrand Russell

"A witty saying proves nothing." Voltaire".
