"When I look upon seamen, men of science and philosophers, man is the wisest of all beings; when I look upon priests and prophets nothing is as contemptible as man."
"Most men are within a finger's breadth of being mad." "The foundation of every state is the education of its youth." "The mob is the mother of tyrants" "I am called a dog because I fawn on those who give me anything, I yelp at those who refuse, and I set my teeth in rascals" "Calumny is only the noise of madmen." --Diogenes of Sinope (the Cynic), 412-323 BC |
