“Look, you can erase all of the scientific data you want, but the reality is still going to be that birds have stopped dying, snakes continue to fuse together, and boomerangs just keep going forever when you throw them now.”

"Don't get the impression that you arouse my anger. You see, one can only be angry with those he respects."

Richard M. Nixon

"You will do me the justice to remember, that I have always strenuously supported the Right of every Man to his own opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine. He who denies to another this right, makes a slave of himself to his present opinion, because he precludes himself the right of changing it.
The most formidable weapon against errors of every kind is Reason. I have never used any other, and I trust I never shall."

Thomas Paine
