"A study of the history of opinion is a necessary preliminary to the emancipation of the mind."

More In Money "President Obama has outsourced a major portion of the U.S. space program to the Russians. That’s national policy. Taxpayer money. So let’s stop playing games with this outsourcing distortion and talk about the fact that when we need is a president that knows how to manage big enterprise and create jobs."― John Sununu "With the amount of money I have, it’s difficult raising children the way I was raised."― Adam Sandler "Taxation is just a sophisticated way of demanding money with menaces."― Terry Pratchett
