Randy K. Milholland, Something Positive Comic, 02-11-05
That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere.

John Locke (1632 - 1704)
Science ... warns me to be careful how I adopt a view which jumps with my preconceptions, and to require stronger evidence for such belief than for one to which I was previously hostile. My business is to teach my aspirations to conform themselves to fact, not to try and make facts harmonize with my aspirations.
