“The real trouble is that 'kindness' is a quality fatally easy to attribute to ourselves on quite inadequate grounds. Everyone feels benevolent if nothing happens to be annoying him at the moment. Thus a man easily comes to console himself for all his other vices by a conviction that 'his heart's in the right place' and 'he wouldn't hurt a fly,' though in fact he has never made the slightest sacrifice for a fellow creature.

“No doubt those who really founded modern science were usually those whose love of truth exceeded their love of power.”

“I did my time for the rape. I paid my money to Las Vegas. I paid my dues.”
