Richard Dawkins
“We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here.We privileged few, who won the lottery of birth against all odds, how dare we whine at our inevitable return to that prior state from which the vast majority have never stirred?”
Richard Dawkins, Unweaving the Rainbow: Science, Delusion and the Appetite for Wonder

علي الوردي
“إن الرأي الجديد هو في العادة رأي غريب لم تألفه النفوس بعد. وما دام هذا الرأي غير خاضع للقيم التقليدية السائدة في المجتمع. فهو كفر أو زندقة. وعندما يعتاد عليه الناس ويصبح مألوفاً وتقليداً يدخل في سجل الدين ويمسي المخالفون له زنادقة وكفاراً.”
علي الوردي, وعاظ السلاطين

Mark Twain
“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform (or pause and reflect).”
Mark Twain
