MIND VITAMINS #2

"I believe that the pursuit of truth and right ideas through honest debate and rigorous argument is a noble undertaking. " Charles Krauthammer

"Quid est veritas? ("What is truth.") Pontius Pilate, John 18:38

What Pilate's motivation was to ask Jesus this question on Good Friday is debatable. I'm taking him literally because it is a vital question for our time. I want to know the truth about everything.  

"I want to know."

Dr. Irina Spalko, Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

"Lying makes a problem part of the future; truth makes a problem part of the past."   Michael McLean
Consider that The Ten Commandments tell us to not lie. For myself a lie also violates another commandment to not steal. Steal what? Time, energy, good will, trust and progress. William B. Protz, Jr.

"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance...."
Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Being ignorant is not so much a shame, as being unwilling to learn." Benjamin Franklin

"Advice is seldom welcome; and those who [need] it the most like it the least. Lord Chesterfield

"Winners take responsibility. Losers blame others." Brit Hume

"I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes." Charles Swindoll

"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. For myself, I am an optimist. It does not seem to be much use being anything else. Winston Churchill

"Before you say a word about another, ask yourself three questions.

Is it true?     Is it kind?     Is it necessary?   Anonymous
