“Each man is a hero and an oracle to somebody”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Everyone should be respected as an individual, but no one idolized.”
Albert Einstein
“The savage bows down to idols of wood and stone, the civilized man to idols of flesh and blood”
George Bernard Shaw
“All the idols made by man, however terrifying they may be, are in point of fact subordinate to him, and that is why he will always have it in his power to destroy them”
Simone de Beauvoir
“Let every man be respected as an individual and no man idolized.”
“Man, he's just one of our idols. I've been listening to Scofield since I was a teenager. One thing I always respected about him was you never knew what his next album would be like. Even today, he still pushes the envelope. For someone to take that kind of approach with his music and then show interest in playing with us is really inspiring.”
Alan Evans
“And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, / Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be enquired of at all by them? / Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the LORD will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols; / That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.”
