“The mind is more like a muscle than we once believed. It is something that must be constantly exercised to attain and maintain peak fitness. Just as an athlete must train harder and harder as he or she matures, so children must think with greater and greater complexity as they pass through school.”
James R. Flynn, Where Have All the Liberals Gone?: Race, Class, and Ideals in America

“Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution.”
Theodosius Dobzhansky, Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“When you strike at a king, you must kill him.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Broad racial solidarity is another possible explanation for why blacks have remained so bullish on Obama despite his economic record. A black member of Congress told political scientist Carol Swain that “one of the advantages, and disadvantages, of representing blacks is their shameless loyalty . . . You can almost get away with raping babies and be forgiven. You don’t have any vigilance about your performance.”3”
Jason L. Riley, Please Stop Helping Us: How Liberals Make It Harder for Blacks to Succeed

Carl Sagan
“If we can't think for ourselves, if we're unwilling to question authority, then we're just putty in the hands of those in power. But if the citizens are educated and form their own opinions, then those in power work for us. In every country, we should be teaching our children the scientific method and the reasons for a Bill of Rights. With it comes a certain decency, humility and community spirit. In the demon-haunted world that we inhabit by virtue of being human, this may be all that stands between us and the enveloping darkness.”
Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark
