“There is no safety for honest men, but by believing all possible evil of evil men, and by acting with promptitude, decision, and steadiness on that belief.” (Edmund Burke)

This is the first time I have read this quote. I am impressed by how prescient and insightful it is in regard to America today.

I freed a thousand slaves I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves. - Harriet Tubman

"A human group transforms itself into a crowd when it suddenly responds to a suggestion rather than to reasoning, to an image rather than an idea, to an affirmation rather than to proof, to the repetition of a phrase rather than to arguments, to prestige rather than to competence." (Jean-Francois Revel)

And that's how the Democratic party came to be.

"Many respectable writers agree that if a man reasonably believes that he is in immediate danger of death or grievous bodily harm from his assailant he may stand his ground and that if he kills him he has not exceeded the bounds of lawful self-defense. That has been the decision of this court." (Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Brown v. United States, 1921)

I hope there's a Zimmerman thread so I can use this... it's wonderful. I'll bet Sowell has a really great library in his home...
