They really do it.

It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful.

But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion.

presented with evidence that works against that belief, the new

ignore and even deny anything that doesn't fit in with the core belief.

32. Now, there's one thing you might have noticed I don't complain about: politicians.

Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck.

Well, where do people think these politicians come from?
They don't fall out of the sky.
They don't pass through a membrane from another reality.

They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses and American universities, and they are elected by American citizens.

This is the best we can do folks.
This is what we have to offer.
It's what our system produces: Garbage in, garbage out.

If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're going to get selfish, ignorant leaders.
Term limits ain't going to do any good; you're just going to end up with a brand new bunch of selfish, ignorant Americans.

So, maybe, maybe, maybe, it's not the politicians who suck.
Maybe something else sucks around here... like, the public.
Yeah, the public sucks.
There's a nice campaign slogan for somebody:

'The Public Sucks. F*ck Hope.

- George Carlin

36. Until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned, everywhere is war.

And until there are no longer first-class and second-class citizens of any nation, until the colour of a man's skin is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes.

And until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race, there is war.

And until that day, the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship, rule of international morality, will remain but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, but never attained... now everywhere is war.

- Haile Selassie I

40. Politics and prostitution have to be the only jobs where inexperience is considered a virtue.

47. Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea you have freedom of choice.

You don't.
You have no choice.
You have owners.
They own you.
They own everything.

They own all the important land, they own and control the corporations that've long since bought and paid for, the senate, the congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pocket, and they own all the big media companies so they control just about all of the news and the information you get to hear. They got you by the balls.

They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want.

They want more for themselves and less for everybody else.

But I'll tell you what they don't want.

They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking.They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking.

They're not interested in that.
That doesn't help them.

- George Carlin

60. Is any of it real?

A world built on fantasy. Synthetic emotions in the form of pills; psychological warfare in the form of advertising; mind-altering chemicals in the form of food; brainwashing seminars in the form of media; controlled isolated bubbles in the form of social networks. Real? You wanna talk about reality?

We haven't lived in anything remotely close to it since the turn of the century. We turned it off, took out the batteries, snacked on a bag of GMOs while we tossed the remnants in the ever expanding dumpster of the human condition. We live in branded houses trademarked by corporations built on bipolar numbers, jumping up and down on digital displays, hypnotising us into the biggest slumber mankind has ever seen. We live in a kingdom of bullshit; a kingdom you've lived in for far too long. So don't tell me about not being real. I'm no less real than the f***ing beef patty in your Big Mac.
