“Fascists always attack minorities,
Which is an irony,
'Cos fascists are a minority.”
Harry Whitewolf, Underdogs Unite

“No one gets where they are without the help of others.”
Ken Bates letter to the New Yorker, Nov 23/2020

“People will say we're being a little bit anthropomorphic?' I remembered Brendan's use of the word - 'human-like'.

'Anyone who doesn't believe that animals are aware that they have family and friends, and care about them, must also be a paid-up member of the Flat Earth Society, or still think the sun revolves around the earth,' replied Dylan disdainfully. 'I mean, how switched off can you be? How can anyone still believe animals don't have emotions? They're alive and emotions are a response to life. I've seen warthogs that are more intelligent and more responsible than some people I know. Not to say better parents.”
Lawrence Anthony, The Last Rhinos: My Battle to Save One of the World's Greatest Creatures

Cathy O'Neil
“Big Data processes codify the past. They do not invent the future. Doing that requires moral imagination, and that’s something only humans can provide. We have to explicitly embed better values into our algorithms, creating Big Data models that follow our ethical lead. Sometimes that will mean putting fairness ahead of profit.”
Cathy O'Neil, Weapons of Math Destruction: How Big Data Increases Inequality and Threatens Democracy

“Time flows in the same way for all human beings; every human being flows through time in a different way.”
