One of Tony's favorite quotes is:"“In constant pursuit of money to finance campaigns, the political system is simply unable to function. Its deliberative powers are paralyzed.”- J Rawls "The fact that we occupy a particular social [/economic] position is not a good reason for us to propose, or to expect others to accept, a position. Similarly, the fact that we affirm a particular religious, philosophical, or moral comprehensive doctrine with its associated conception of the good is not a reason for us to propose, or to expect others to accept, a conception of justice that favors those of that persuasion." - John Rawls "It is as if [hu]man[kind] had been suddenly appointed managing director of the biggest business of all, the business of evolution--appointed without being asked if [s/]he wanted it, and without proper warning and preparation. what is more, [s/]he can't refuse the job. Whether [s/]he wants it or not, whether he is conscious of what [s/]he is doing ot not, [s/]he is in point of fact determining the futu...Expand for more
re direction of evolution on this earth. That is [her]/his inescapable destiny, and the sooner [s/]he realizes it and starts believing in it, the better for all concerned." - J Huxley "My position is a naturalistic one; I see philosophy not as an a priori propaedeutic or groundwork for science, but as continuous with science. I see philosophy and science as in the same boat—a boat which, to revert to Neurath’s figure as I so often do, we can rebuild only at sea while staying afloat in it. There is no external vantage point, no first philosophy." -WVO Quine "The brain is wider--than the Sky" - Emily Dickinson "The lore of our fathers is a fabric of sentences. In our hands it develops and changes, through more or less arbitrary and deliberate revisions and additions of our own, more or less directly occasioned by the continuing stimulation of our sense organs. It is a pale gray lore, black with fact and white with convention. But I have found no substantial reasons for concluding that there are any quite black threads in it, or any white ones." - WVO Quine "We must not leap to the fatalistic conclusion that we are stuck with the conceptual scheme that we grew up in. We can change it, bit by bit, plank by plank, though meanwhile there is nothing to carry us along but the evolving conceptual scheme itself. The philosopher’s task was well compared by Neurath to that of a mariner who must rebuild his ship on the open sea." - WVO Quine".
