“The histories of mankind are histories only of the higher classes.”

– Thomas Malthus. (Isn’t that because they’re the exceptions? Why spend effort and analysis to catalog and remember the pervasive and innocuous?

“Education: the inculcation of the incomprehensible into the indifferent by the incompetent.” – John Maynard Keynes. (Discussing the desire of the local education system to drug all our children into servile submission.)

“By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.” – Socrates. (Hellenic satire at it’s best.) I had a good wife. So, does that mean I can’t be a philosopher? Or does it mean that women shouldn’t marry philosophers? Which seems much more likely. Yes. I think Socrates got it backwards. 🙂
