“(Twain on Cain): it was his misfortune to live in a dark age that knew not the beneficent Insanity Plea”
Mark Twain
“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”
Buddha

Alfred Hitchcock
“We have absolutely no evidence that shows that the China safeguards have had any beneficial impact on the U.S. textile industry in terms of increasing orders and production.”
