the unseen and the spiritual in people that
determines the outward and the actual.

Philosopher, Author
Suppose that humans happen to be so constructed that
they desire the opportunity for freely undertaken
productive work. Suppose that they want to be free
from the meddling of technocrats and commissars,
bankers and tycoons, mad bombers who engage in
psychological tests of will with peasants defending
their homes, behavioral scientists who can't tell a
pigeon from a poet, or anyone else who tries to wish
freedom and dignity out of existence or beat them
into oblivion.
-- Noam Chomsky
1928-, American
Linguist, Political Activist
When
new turns of behavior cease to appear in the life of
the individual, its behavior ceases to be
intelligent.
-- C. E. Coghill
