"Letting a maximum number of views be heard regularly
is not just a nice philosophical notion.
It is the best way any society has yet discovered
to detect maladjustments quickly, to correct injustices,
and to discover new ways to meet our continuing stream
of novel problems that rise in a changing environment."
-- Ben H. Bagdikian
(1920- ) Armenian-born author,
dean emeritus of the University of California at Berkeley's Graduate
School of Journalism, former editor at the Washington Post

"Believe nothing merely because you have been told it.
Do not believe what your teacher tells you
merely out of respect for the teacher.
But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis,
you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit,
the welfare of all beings -- that doctrine believe and cling to,
and take it as your guide."
-- Buddha
[Gautama Siddharta] (563 - 483 BC), Hindu Prince, founder of Buddhism

"Men, it has been well said, think in herds;
it will be seen that they go mad in herds,
while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one."
-- Charles Mackay
(1814-1889) Scottish poet, journalist, author, anthologist, novelist, and songwriter
