"Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice, and moderation in the defense of justice is no virtue"-Barry Goldwater^[1]

"We all have the same evidence, but we also have differing assumptions on how that evidence got there”-Terra Novus^[2]

"A nice little story, which I heard in Goettingen, was that the well-known mathematician David Hilbert had a very talented student, who quit. When he was asked what had become of this promising young man, he answered: 'He became a writer. He did not have enough imagination for Mathematics.'"-Burkhard Heim^[3]

"I do not separate Christ from God more than a voice from the speaker or a beam from the sun. Christ is the voice of the speaker. He and the Father are the same thing, as the beam and the light, are the same light."-Michael Servetus^[4]

"When civilization [population] increases, the available labor again increases. In turn, luxury again increases in correspondence with the increasing profit, and the customs and needs of luxury increase. Crafts are created to obtain luxury products. The value realized from them increases, and, as a result, profits are again multiplied in the town. Production there is thriving even more than before. And so it goes with the second and third increase. All the additional labor serves luxury and wealth, in contrast to the original labor that served the necessity of life."-Ibn Khaldun^[5]

It may indeed prove to be far the most difficult and not the least important task for human reason rationally to comprehend its own limitations. It is essential for the growth of reason that as individuals we should bow to forces and obey principles which we cannot hope fully to understand, yet on which the advance and even the preservation of civilization depend.-Friedrich Hayek^[6]

The “progressive” Left always prefers a neoconservative to an antiwar libertarian.-Thomas Woods^[7]

The link between animal products and heart disease is now very well documented. It’s no surprise that half of all Americans develop heart disease, because the typical U.S. diet puts almost everyone at risk." – Dean Ornish^[8]

"Racism is simply an ugly form of collectivism, the mindset that views humans strictly as members of groups rather than individuals. Racists believe that all individuals who share superficial physical characteristics are alike: as collectivists, racists think only in terms of groups. By encouraging Americans to adopt a group mentality, the advocates of so-called 'diversity' actually perpetuate racism. Their obsession with racial group identity is inherently racist."-Ron Paul^[9]
