Late to the Party

By j7uy5 on August 29, 2006.

This meme involves going to the random quotations page, and picking
five quotes.  The rules: “Go
href="http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3">here
and look through random quotes until you find 5 that you think reflect
who you are or what you believe.”



I saw my SciBlings doing it, but passed...until I saw that gonesavage

rel="tag">Cyberspace Rendezvous did it
too.


Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those
who find it.

Andre Gide (1869 - 1951)



Chase after the truth like all hell and you'll free yourself, even
though you never touch its coat-tails.

Clarence Darrow (1857 - 1938)



Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living
at it.

Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)



The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of
words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the
people who must use the words.

Philip K. Dick, How To Build A Universe That Doesn't Fall
Apart Two Days Later (1978)



We often do good in order that we may do evil with impunity.

Francois De La Rochefoucauld (1613 - 1680)
