Tom Stoppard
“It's where we're nearest to our humanness. Useless knowledge for its own sake. Useful knowledge is good, too, but it's for the faint-hearted, an elaboration of the real thing, which is only to shine some light, it doesn't matter where on what, it's the light itself, against the darkness, it's what's left of God's purpose when you take away God.”
Tom Stoppard, The Invention of Love

Paul Krugman
“Wealthy Americans who benefit hugely from a system rigged in their favor react with hysteria to anyone who points out just how rigged the system is.”
Paul Krugman

David Hume
“It is an absurdity to believe that the Deity has human passions, and one of the lowest of human passions, a restless appetite for applause”
David Hume

David Hume
“But the life of a man is of no greater importance to the universe than that of an oyster.”
David Hume, On Suicide

Arthur Conan Doyle
“There is nothing more stimulating than a case where everything goes against you.”
Arthur Conan Doyle, The Hound of the Baskervilles
