Philosophy is a kind of journey ever learning yet never arriving at the ideal perfection of truth.
We learned about honesty and integrity - that the truth matters... that you don't take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules... and success doesn't count unless you earn it fair and square.
The truth is the Republican leadership has created a credit card Congress that is recklessly selling out the future of America our children and our grandchildren and President Bush is the most fiscally irresponsible President in the history of America.
I think Chinese leadership is trying to tell the world they have another set of logic or reasoning or values which are different from yours. Of course I don't think they believe that. It's just an argument that's made when you can't confront the truth and facts. They really want to maintain power.
Well the truth is always what should be told. And the truth and the knowledge of the truth is what everybody should represent regardless of the consequences of doing it.
Breaking into a system or exposing its weaknesses is a good thing because truth and knowledge must win out.
The whole Twitter phenomenon is really indicative of what's happening in this country. And I say this in condemnation of myself as much as anyone else - we are growing into a nation that has no time desire or capacity for truth. All we can handle is 140 characters of knowledge.
A fact must be assimilated with or discriminated fromm some other fact or facts in order to be raised to the dignity of a truth and made to convey the least knowledge to the mind.
I think it will be found that experience the true source and foundation of all knowledge invariably confirms its truth.
Science is knowledge arranged and classified according to truth facts and the general laws of nature.
