“Theory is taught so as to make the student believe that he or she can become a Marxist, a feminist, an Afrocentrist, or a deconstructionist with about the same effort and commitment required in choosing items from a menu.”

“I am a democrat because I believe in the Fall of Man. [...] Mankind is so fallen that no man can be trusted with unchecked power over his fellows. Aristotle said that some people were only fit to be slaves. I do not contradict him. But I reject slavery because I see no men fit to be masters.”
— C. S. Lewis, 1943

“The blindness of those who think it absurd to suppose that complex organic forms may have arisen by successive modifications out of simple ones becomes astonishing when we remember that complex organic forms are daily being thus produced. A tree differs from a seed immeasurably in every respect... Yet is the one changed in the course of a few years into the other: changed so gradually, that at no moment can it be said — Now the seed ceases to be, and the tree exists.”
— Herbert Spencer, 1852

“It's very, very dangerous to lose contact with living nature. […] In the big cities, there are people who have never seen living nature, all things are products of humans […] The bigger the town, the less they see and understand nature.”

“Too much consistency is as bad for the mind as it is for the body. Consistency is contrary to nature, contrary to life. The only completely consistent people are the dead.”

“Culture itself is some kind of neotenizing force, because what culture provides is a bunch of rules, so you don't have to think, and a bunch of myths, so you don't have to think again; culture has all the answers. [...] But now technology throws a curve, and the curve is that we live so long that we figure out what a scam this is. We figure out that what you're supposed to work for isn't worth having, we figure out that our politicians are buffoons, we figure out that professional scientists are reputation-building grab-tailing weasels, we discover that all organizations are corrupted by ambition, you know, you get the picture: we figure it out.”

“One does not have freedom if anyone else (especially a large organization) has power over one, no matter how benevolently, tolerantly and permissively that power may be exercised. It is important not to confuse freedom with mere permissiveness.”

“Every moment in business happens only once. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won't make a search engine. And next Mark Zuckerberg won't create a social network. If you are copying these guys, you aren't learning from them. [...] Today's "best practices" lead to dead ends; the best paths are new and untried.”

“We have two great stories about the simulation and artificial general intelligence. In one story, man fears that some program we've given birth to will become self-aware, smarter than us, and take over. In another story, there are genius simulators and we live in their simulation; and we haven't realized that those two stories are the same story. In one case, we are the simulator, and in another case, we are the simulated. And if you buy those and put them together, we are the AGI, and whether or not we have simulators, we may be trying to wake up by learning our own source code.”

“The documents left no doubt that the NSA was equally involved in economic espionage, diplomatic spying, and suspicionless surveillance aimed at entire populations. Taken in its entirety, the Snowden archive led to an ultimately simple conclusion: the US government had built a system that has as its goal the complete elimination of electronic privacy worldwide. Far from hyperbole, that is the literal, explicitly stated aim of the surveillance state: to collect, store, monitor, and analyze all electronic communication by all people around the globe.”

“Ubuntu, a widely used and influential GNU/Linux distribution, has installed surveillance code. When the user searches her own local files for a string using the Ubuntu desktop, Ubuntu sends that string to one of Canonical's servers. (Canonical is the company that develops Ubuntu.) [...] Ubuntu surveillance is not anonymous.”
